Default Trailing Arm re-builders in IL?

I am rebuilding my rear end and realized I do not want to tackle the TA's.

Does anyone know a quality, and hopefully reasonable re-builder in Illinois or NW Indiana?

I have read posts and know of Van Steel, and VBP. I would prefer to deal locally, save some shipping, and have some local contacts.
Thanks in advance!!
