ISO : Mechanic (Work on '09 Suburban)

[FrankOceanXray]

Just a few things I never got around to and want to just have done. Opportunity to handle these things are getting slimmer with weather, work schedule and daylight.

Rear springs (did full Bilstein 5100 and OEM Z71 springs, just didn't do rear springs).

Engine mounts (have two new OEM from the dealer ready to install).

AT filter (new, from dealer).

Would like to change gear fluid, too.

Buddy is a parts manager so I have all the stuff just looking for a qualified, experienced someone to do the job.

Annapolis area. Can do cash.

I can recommend Chaney's in Annapolis at the end of Hudson Street. I have been a customer for years and they have done lots of suspension, front end work on our Honda Odyssesys and Toyotas.

Thing is my local shop is a good one, too.. they don't do work on customer provided parts. I'll have to see if your recommendation is of the same mind.

Many Maryland shops are the same way. About 5-6 years ago, Md Garage Keepers policies stated that we have no insurance coverage on customer supplied parts against workmanship, defects, etc. After a while some shops just put a disclaimer on the repair order, During a court case, the defending shop was told the disclaimer is worthless as they are supposed to be the professional and know better than a customer. They lost a large amount of money so a lot of shops are gun-shy now
