any shop should be able to do it for you. you can also rent tools from autozone to do it yourself.

I just did a set along with OTT steering rack spacers today on a SS.

I'm from the Jersey shore so not too far from LI. If you want to drive down, shoot me a PM and we can work something out.

Do it yourself. Just rent the compressor from an auto parts store. There's a how to. Very basic stuff.
