I have a friend that needs springs, ball joints, control arm bushings, steering, just about everything. My go-to places have moved over to truck suspension. Anyone know of a GOOD shop for this on LI?
Any GOOD suspension shops on Long Island?

Driver car. Maybe do everything in polyurethane for longevity sake. It's a 1980 all original so everything needs to be done. Turna I used Unico lots of times. Rocco was a real character and could toss out spring part numbers off the top of his head. He did my 1968 LeSabre. I looked at them and lt appears they evolved into a heavy truck business. Same with Nassau Auto Spring. Trucks. I am looking at Ridgewood Auto Spring on Fresh Pond Road. I guess since the move to strut suspension it's a dying business.
So i called the guy at Ridgewood Auto Spring and he was very accommodating. He actually preferred that I accumulate all the parts and he would install them. He says he used to do 3 or4 front ends a day but not so much anymore. He said if I want poly parts then I should buy what I need and save him the trouble of tracking stuff down. Makes sense, but I still want to bring the car to him for a look-see. Someone put rear springs in and the rear is high. We want the front to match and I think the shop guy would know best which front springs to get. Then I was talking to the new guy in the boat slip next to mine and he said his nephew just started working there. Small world.
