GNJ is a Maximum Motorsports dealer and Steeda dealer and will do anything suspension wise. The best suspension shop for stangs in the Bay Area however in many people's opinion is probably Maier racing in Hayward. Those guys win the sutocross stuff every year so they obviously gotta know their suspension. A lot of there parts are made by them and what they don't make they sel Maximum Motorsports of. I'd definately give them a call. I don't know much about Big Boy except for what is occassionally posted about them. I'm sure they are good too though [patriot]

They are not around anymore. I think its been about five years or so that they were last in business. That's probably why the previous posts said " would have been"... They used to be real close to where APEX is now....

Greg at GNJ is a great guy and will hook you up. It's a small shop and he only can work on two cars at a time and does pretty much all the work himself. With such a small shop he has no need to hire anyone else to take money away from him. It's smart business and he handles it with no problem, gets the job done with quality and in as little time as possible. By the way you better hurry up to open a shop named the stable cause you are about 1 in 10 people thinking of opening a shop with that name. [Eek!] It'll happen within the year here I bet [patriot]
