Default Orlando metro area recommended shops

I'm increasingly finding it difficult to find shops which will let you bring your own parts for them to install, or heck, with a lift I can rent to install them myself. Laying on concrete under the car isn't as fun as it once was.

Can anyone recommend shops with lifts that can assist with installation of aftermarket parts in the Orlando metro area? I'm mostly talking brake, suspension & simple driveline maintenance... both OEM parts and custom solutions.

Thanks!

I would prefer if I was allowed in the bay and under the car when they were working on it, and allowed to be involved in the installation process. I have a friend who used to have an alignment shop who was flexible with those policies, I guess he spoiled us

I have a shop in longwood I do a fair amount of sidework out of. Although i'm always weary of someone lingering when i do it. LOL Usually makes it take twice as long.

Speedzone - ask for Matt, he does a lot of f-body lsx stuff
There are a few guys out there that do a lot of decent side work but you have to know a friend of a friend.

I found a shop run by some old friends I used to autocross with, called Dynasty Auto. They're located just east of Semoran on Colonial in Orlando. Not sure I'm getting price breaks, but I trust them. They don't have a dyno but I think they'll have most everything else handled, including being able to corner balance the car. Thanks for getting me their number, Rob!
