Default Miami Based Performance Shops?? Shock install

Looking to install my DRM shocks, and have a great shop to do the work, but its an hour and a half to West Palm Beach each way, and this shop is not open on the weekends and I work Monday-Friday.

Anywhere you guys recommend to do a shocks install, and alignment in Miami??

Horsepower Sales. They do awesome work, and will continue using them, just sooo far and the closed on weekends makes it incredibly difficult for those who work M-F.

:-). Thanks for the invite

There has to be someplace in my neck of the woods that will do a simple shocks swap. I need a good shop to align it afterwards as well.

Sixto Motorsports down south replaced my shocks and did my alignment. Really cool people and they do great work.

Shocks are so basic and easy, I wouldn't have an issue going to just about anywhere. No need for a corvette/LS specific shop to undo 3-4 bolts a corner and put new shocks in. Any decent alignment place could probably do it.

sorry for the late response. I don't think they have a website. they specialize in GM. last time I went, the owner had a built c6 and it was pretty serious. might be why we got along lol. Not to mention, he was a head mechanic for GM for many years until he opened up his own shop.
