Shop Recommendations- Southern Oregon?

[hikerfisher]

Anyone have any? I've purchased torsion bars, shocks and springs to complete the AHC to LC conversion, but I'm not comfortable doing it myself.

I've checked with several auto shops in the Medford area- they won't touch it- probably because the lawyers told them not to... I get it, but still need help.

gotta be something in Bend?

Have you tried LA Auto in Medford? I used them for my 200 series and they didn’t bat an eye when discussing the ins and outs of several projects I had in mind. I happened into them at the recommendation of another Toyota enthusiast, albeit not of the LC variety. Shop rates were very reasonable and guys were all cool. Only used them for one job but they earned another shot for sure. If you end up giving them a go please follow up and let me know how it went. Also, hello from Medford

Maybe so- but Medford is about the same population and 4 hours closer. On the other hand, probably more LC/LX enthusiasm up there in the mountains.

I don’t remember if I called them yet, but I’ll definitely do that- thanks.

There’s definitely an LC contingent in the Rogue Valley. Not one that can compare to Bend but we’re around and there are shops that know the machines. Another option is Mike’s Custom Toys in Grants Pass. If they won’t take the job they would know who would.

Excellent- thank you.
