Albuquerque Fab Shop Needed

Hey guys I was wondering if you knew of any shops in Albuquerque that could do a Spring over Axle conversion at a decent price?

I'm new into wheeling but have gotten the same advice from everyone, "get an SOA". I would really appreciate it if you could help.

thanks

-Ken

Thanks for responding. I really am only getting the SOA because it has been recommended to me. I have no problem with SUA and just using new lift springs. I just don't really know how to go about doing it. I dont want to mess anything up on my truck since it is already highly fabricated as it is. I'm sure there's lots to screw up if I attempt this stuff with no previous experience in doing it.

Off the top of your head what do you think it would cost to have new springs installed? I can find some rancho 4" lift springs for my truck for around $150 each, so including labor what do you think?

I have no idea. I've done all my own vehicle labor for 50+ years. Call them.
