Default Road force balancing & Suspension Shops in the Dallas area

I want to get my wheels road force balanced. I have yet to find anywhere in the area which can do this. Anybody know of a shop that can?

Also I just recently bought some subframe connectors and I need a shop to weld them in along with a set of LCA relocation brackets. I am use to working on my car myself or with friends, so if anyone could help me out, it would be appreciated.

Thanks

Any Discount Tire can do the road forcing.

What part of Texas are you in?

so do I need to ask for this, cause all I ever see them do is a spin balance on their machines?

i went to AAA muffler in downtown plano for my SFC and I belive Nick was his name...has a nice TBSS.

Did a great job on them. Any muffler/welding shop should be able to do this for 75 bucks or so.


I also know for a fact the Firestone across from my shop on coit rd does road force balancing, I've seen the machine. It's pretty cool.

Well both of those are not too far for me. I will have to check that out.
