Anyone feel good about a shop North of Denver that is up to speed with our trucks front end?

I need someone to diagnose a problem, not chase it.

Thanks

Big Jimmy-
Where are you located, and what type of problem are you having with your truck? I live in Brighton.

big jimmy

I'm in Longmont. As soon as it gets wet- even just a hint of rain- I get a clunk on turning right. If its actually raining and there is splashing, the binding is very pronounced, feels like drivers side and not good when just going down the highway and I adjust the wheel for a curve. does not do it when dry. Very weird.

Jimmy-
from you sig, it looks like you just replaced the left ball joint, maybe the right one needs to be changed. Give Rob a call he is in Golden, very knowledgeable and he does all my work when I cant find the problem. 303-278-8038, leave a message, he's probably building another set of twins.

While I second Rob as great guy to go to longmont is not exactly right down the street. There is a member in Greeley "LazerBob" Bob Berends does great work and while I dont think he is well versed in front ends I think he has told me that he has a great front end guy up there who he takes all that kind of stuff to. Be worth a call 970-356-6444

Barry-
I have to agree Lazer Bob is a fantastic transmission guy and HD alignment guy, I don't know if he would do any front end work that jimmy is asking for, if that is the case living in Brighton, it is only 20-25 mins to Lazers shop.
Thanks for the heads up.

big jimmy

Thanks. That gives me a good head start.

Yeah I dont think he does the front end work for our size of truck either but if I recall correctly he has told me he knows a good front end guy in Greeley for our trucks.

Well that would be nice, trying to keep the front end of these trucks straight can start to get crazy, with level kits and bigger tires, r/r ball joints.....
