Default San Angelo peeps inside

I am looking for a shop to install my 3.73's. Angelo is only 70 miles. Any recommendations? I have heard a place called g&g automotive.

hey man,

the full name of the shop is west texas 4-wheel and off road. their number is (325)651-5010 and they are located at 6305 US HWY 277 S. call em and schedule something. i hope to be getting my 3.73s in with them in the next week or two.

as far as get togethers, usually every friday or sat night is good cruising. but sunday evenings we do have a small GTG. theres usually anywhere from 8 to 20 of us, mostly fbodies, and a few vettes and *cough* mustangs*cough*

just give me a shout on here if youre ever interested in coming down. my names anthony.

I am not in San Antonio. Brady is about 140 miles north west of San Antonio. I didnt really want to drive that far to get my gears put. Thanks though.

i had to reorder an install kit, made the mistake of letting a buddy take mine a few weeks ago, who still hasnt paid me back! im hoping to get it in there late next week if the kit comes in, and if they can take me on a couple days notice. then, next weekend im trekking up to DFW to see my g/f, and to get my speedo calibrated for the gears(hopefully).

so i wont be around next weekend if you want to cruise.

but if you are in town next weekend let me know, i will set you up with my buddies, they would love to check out your car!

you ought to come down again next time our track is open

I got mine installed in Big Lake, but I had some problems with other parts in the diff recently so when I had them reinstalled I went to Ric at Kirkseys Auto and he did a great job with them and even got most of the gear whine out of it after reinstalling the gears. His # is 325-653-3583. BTW, I was in Brady at the car show a few weeks ago with Jimmy, there were some pretty decent cars there. Let me know if you come down here to San Angelo, maybe we can get some LS1Techers in the area together for a little GTG.

The car show here sucks. I went 2 years ago and placed first with my car. I havent been since then. There were just too many ricers.
I still havent got my gears installed. It took TSP 2 weeks to finially get me the right diff cover. I am going to try to get them done as soon as I can. I was actually over at San Angelo today for a CE class. I will for sure go to any gtg's out your way.
