Looking for a good shop, VA area.

Looking for any recommendations for a good shop that's not too far from me. I'm in NOVA, and looking to get an ICON stage 4 suspension, along with Deaver leaf springs installed on my 2002 Tundra AC. I may also be doing a re-gear and adding an ARB locker in the rear. I had planned on using a shop in Fredericksburg, but have changed my mind. Currently in an apartment with no access to tools or a garage so doing it myself is not really an option. Plus, I want it done right the first time, so another reason I should not do it myself. Anyway, thanks for any advice!

I'd highly recommend High Tech Auto and Truck in Chantilly. They've done a serious icon dual shock setup on my 4Runner and know Toyota IFS and Icon installs inside and out (blog in my sig has install shots from their shop). They're not cheap, but if you want it done right the first time, they're your guys. No affiliation besides happily spending a buttload of money with them.

Thanks Joneseyyy! I had never heard of them before, but will go check them out this week. I think your 4Runner is in one of their photo albums as well.

Happy to help. Since you're local as well, a bunch of us from Expo are all in a Facebook group "Mid Atlantic Overland Society" - easy to search and join. Guys arrange trail rides, trips, etc. and occasionally meet up for some food and drink. Good group of guys and a good local resource.

Another vote for High Tech in Chantilly. They just did suspension work on my 4x4 Tiger. It is a real joy to walk into a shop that understands 4x4.
