I take my stang to Joe at Chincanes and also Eric at Extreme Mustang. Both of these guys are top notch and deliver nothing short of quality work. I have also heard the same about Marlo at Marlo's Frame and Alignment but unfortunately his shop is just a little too far from me to travel. I think you can't go wrong with either of these guys.

Check our AFM Links section under <a href="http://www.allfordmustangs.com/AFM_Links/(us)westcoastshops.shtml" target=new>Service Shops - (US) West Coast Shops</a> for those and other Service Shops in and around your area.

Hope this is of some help.

I was looking to have some Ford racing springs installed, and some 3.73 gears on my 91 GT AOD. I've had bad luck in the past with other cars i have owned, and my mustang means the world to me. Are these guys reasonably priced as well?

I can't say what they charge I have never used any of the shops that Scott listed, however, with that said I have heard only good things about extreme mustang.

Either of the shops I have listed are more than capable of doing the work you outlined. All three of these shops specialize in Mustangs. They know what they are doing when it comes to Mustangs and will look after "your baby" properly, so there is no need to worry there.

I am not sure what the labor rates are at each so it would be best to give them a call yourself.
