I need a good suspension shop fast!

[Tuner World]

So my messed up suspension finally took a shit on me, the ball joint ripped out the knuckle and will not go back in. Does anyone know a good and reputable suspension shop that I can tow my car to? It's the front drivers side and I'm gonna need a new lower ball joint along with replacing anything thats bent..

do it urself?

I would of done it if it was a simpler job but I don't have time to press a new ball joint in and all that crap and have no place to do it, I'd rather just pay and get my suspension fixed. The main reason this happened was because my suspension was jacked up so I'm gonna get that fixed while I'm at it..

And thanks Oreif! I'll probably end up taking it there! Any name I have to mention that can et me a discount?

I have a BALL JOINT press kit if you wanna use it, but sounds like you have want a shop to handle it.

It's a balljoint not a rod and piston. Any mechanic can replace that. Any regular person for that matter can replace a balljoint. If you can put on a new roll of toilet paper you can do a balljoint.

You just need a hammer and some ring pliers or use a needlenose and a flathead screwdriver.

Yea but I don't have the time or place to do it (I live in a condo) and they recently banned me from using jacks in my parking lot

But yea I'm gonna hand this job over to a shop to get rid of the hassle; I also have some bent suspension parts I had to get swapped out anyways but it looks like I'm going to that tire place Oreif recommended!

Well I towed it to APG or "Fabtech" and they hooked me up! Tow was 85 bucks and repair was 85 bucks. I'm so glad I did not do this myself because we had to torch that mother fucker off!! Car is drivable but won't be driven until cross member is in and suspension is restored!
