Default Suspension setup

Hi all, It's been a while and i'm still rebuilding my TA. Does anyone know of a suspension shop in the DFW area that can calibrate a BMR/Koni setup with adjustable A-arms? I am fairly out of depth as far as all of that goes.

Google! Buy a protractor and set it up yourself. It will vary per car, driver and setup. As far as shock settings, that will need to be done at the track.

Thank you for posting this, I recently moved to DFW area, and just bought a 2002 SS that I will be tweaking here and there, so it will be nice to know what shops in the area are solid.

I will let you guys know how they are, I have an appointment with them tomorrow morning to give my suspension a once over. As I said in a post in the suspension forum, I have a a squeak that cropped up when I as stuck in traffic. The guess is a bushing that's going, but I'll let the pros take a look.
