    Mechanic help in L.A.

    I am in W.L.A. and need a mechanic to install the rear shocks in my Land Cruiser. I don't have the space to do it in my condo parking lot. Can any of you L.A. guys recommend someone?

    It's literally three bolts per side. I could do it in under 20 minutes if I had space but unfortunately I don't.


    Gracias.

            Dude if they're just shocks, you don't need a mechanic. Just look for someone to offer you some garage/driveway space.

              I did the fronts myself w/o picking up the truck. The backs are easier.

              I just don't have anyplace to do it. I have no problem paying I just want them in. Firestone wants 80.00 to do it and I think that is excessive for 6 bolts.

              I will end up paying them if no one knows someone that is reasonable.

                  My two concerns are that I'll break a bolt (they have a tendancy to break per ih8mud becuse there is a good chance the shocks are original and therefore the bolts have been in there for 12 years)

                  And that I'll be stuck due to broken shock bolts.

                        How far from Westwood are you? How much do you want?
