I'm not that far from you in Richmond - just a couple of hours. I have a good friend that owns a garage and he's as honest as the day is long. Why don't you come up this way for a Saturday morning and let him pull your wheels and check things out. His rates are reasonable and the work will be done right or not at all. Send me a pm if you're interested and we can set it up so that you don't have to wait until winter.
