Need a good shop - Raleigh Area

[dell30rb]

Friend needs the ball joints replaced on his LJ wrangler that we just lifted. I don't want to do it. Anyone have a recommendation for a good Raleigh area shop? Local place quoted him $1200. Yikes

Call up North Ridge Station. Their main tech is a friend of mine and used to work for Chrysler Jeep for a number of years as a tech.

Thanks. Do you happen to have the first name of the Tech? That place is right down the street from me. I will definitely ask them for a quote.

That was my impression as well...

Tell you what, I will pay him the $1200 to take the LJ off his hands so he doesn't have to deal with it!

Seriously ball joints are not a big deal. He should buy the tools, do the work, come out way ahead. I am sitting here thinking this is a 2-3 hour job for a driveway hack, less with air tools and an open garage bay. Heck I have half a mind to offer to do it for a few bucks.
