Does anyone go to atco. I was reading a post about those 12 sec guys and the one said that's where he goes.
I never have, but Atco isn't far at all from me...roughly 30 mins. Would love to see that in person.

I'm also about 30 minutes from Atco. It's not really my thing, but I'm willing to suck it up. :)

I've been going to atco since I was 10. Used to race my mustangs there back in the day. Then race my imports in the dark ages lol. Then it was all my trucks after that lol. I havnt been there in like three years but it would be nice to see some fellow RF guys racing. I never even got a chance to run my trailblazer ss

I used to go on the trailvoy forums about 6 years ago. Got all the info to lift my envoy and all the right specs on buying the right rims and tires.

I see what you mean, but you had to mod to get the extra h/p out of it.

kg93 - Going fast is nice, but being able to do a lot with what you drive can be a bigger benefit.

Hey fellow Jersey Ram owners, I'm looking for a great 4x4 shop in my area. I've got Bilstein installed all around and had a shop install them. I mostly ride with my windows up and radio on. Yesterday I had the windows down and it seems everytime that I go into a parking lot or uneven ground, I'm hearing a clunking / banging sound from my front. The shop that installed them were given explicit instructions about the washer install. I just for peace of mind want / need to be sure it was done accordingly. I'm located in 08332 and would like to stay close to that area shop wise. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Wish I could help, but the only good place I know is at least 1 hour away from you. Do you see any fluid leaks? While on uneven ground did you feel as if the truck was struggling to move? I'm thinking something wasn't put back together the way it should have been.

No fluid leaks, pills like a freight train even when in 4x4 mode. My only observation is that clunking noise upon entering parking lots where I need to turn. :(

Sadly our NTB around here has new kids on the block as techs. The last time I went there, they mounted four new tires for me and one was the wrong size. My other friend went there and they installed the wrong shocks on his truck and it was bouncing like it was on parade. :(

That sounds like something was not put back together properly. I wish I could help you more, but you wouldn't have posted looking for a good shop if there was a good one close to you.

Just throwing out some suggestions here, but could it be the ball joints? Also a while back I saw some bilsteins threads that it's possible that the clamp could be installed backards. If you have time, send some pics and I can compare it to mine.

It might not be a fix, but at least you can have some knowledge next time you get it serviced. This is the first time I have made changes to any of my previous emails, so I stalked this forum alot and I has helped me in getting my hands dirty with doing things on my truck.

I didn't think of that, but it sounds like a good possibility.

I will try and take some photos today, but at this rate any place within a 50 mile radius of 08332 is fine by me. With having two teenage daughters it's become harder to get away for extended periods of time during the day..
