Default Good Shop In Ft. Worth Area

Hey guys, Im headed BACK to work after having a whopping day and a half off.. Anyhow, Im headed back to the Ft. Worth Area, and I have not installed my pillar pod and the 3 gauges that I got with it... I was wondering if anyone knew of a good shop in the Ft. Worth area that would install the gauges and pod. I would do them, but I just dont get time off right now like I need. Plus I dont have a tap set, or know exactly where in the Trans line to put this "T" fitting and all that. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks


KC

If you pass by Texas Motor Speedway, right north of the track about 1/2 mile on the west side of I-35 is Nabors Rig 712.. Thats where I'll be tomorrow night.. Want to find somewhere close by to drop my truck off and get the gauges done. Thanks.

I appreciate it Zach.. I called them earlier cause NOPROBLEM reccommended them as well.. They quoted me $350-$400 for the 3 gauge install.. and they said it would take all day since they have to drain the trans, cut and weld a bung to the pan for the trans temp gauge.. Kinda makes me wonder what other gauge I should have got instead of a trans temp since my factory one seems to work fine.. Oh well. just one of them things I guess..
