Good Shop in Cincinnati

Good Shop in Cincinnati?
Hello,
I just moved to Cincinnati OH from the Knoxville area and I am in need of a good shop to do some suspension work. Can anyone make any recommendations? I need new bushings and shocks at all four corners.
I had originally planned to drive home(MS coast) and use my dad's two post lift and all his tools, but I don't have enough vacation time(new job). It would have been a great learning experience, but the roads here are terrible. Any big bumps over 40mph cause my truck to shift around. Makes me pucker up.

Use to live in Cincinnati a few years back, and usually had good luck with Santos Auto Repair.
Here is the link from google:

Would take my vehicles there, along with family vehicles before doing all the work myself. Would usually have most work done within 24 hrs, and had very fair prices.
If you are looking for a performance shop for 4x4 stuff, not quite sure as no shops really last longer than 4-5 years in the area.

IMHO, if you are talking about changing shocks and sway bar bushings, there's no better way to do it yourself. a shop will charge you $300-500 for labor. i would invest that money towards tools and better parts.
i swapped all the coils and shocks on my 4th gen 3 months ago that took myself 3 hours in my drive way with a pair of free loaner coil compressors from Napa.
i would say go to ttora ohio chapter asking if anybody wants to lend a hand. nothing beats getting shat done with your own hands.

p.s. if i were gonna do it again, i would buy myself a quality pair of coil compressors, the rental ones just plain scary.
