Default looking for new shop in DFW

Hey guys... I live in the grapevine area and I was looking for a new shop that does work on 4th gen Fbodies in DFW. I use to go to RPM in Lewisville, but they went out of business. The car I am wanting to service is a 2002 z28.

I am also looking for a solid shop in area that does work on our axles, I think I am losing a bearing in the rear axle. Sounds like a small chatter(like roller skates sound) when cruising at certain speeds.

Thanks again guys, and any help would be appreciated...

For driveline work, Jason at Texas Drivetrain Performance.

Knowing what service work you need done would help define the shop.

Couple of issues I know I need to fix on the car now are tranny fluid change, fix whatever the issue in the axle is and then changing the front rotors and pads since the factory ones are starting to warp a tad..

As to the shop I am looking for. I guess I am looking for a shop that can tune, and modify the motor as I want to tear into it more. As of right now it has every bolt on possible so I am looking to start doing suspension and internal work on the motor within the next year.. I had HP tuners for tuning from RPM, I am not sure if there is a better program to switch to, or stick with that....

Talk to Sam88GT for a tune
Jason at TDP for your rear end and transmission
Not sure about your rotors & pads though

I wouldn't let anyone but Jason @ TDP touch my diff or trans.


I am not far away in north Euless and will do rotors and pads on the cheap.
