Default Youngs Garage visit

So as some of you know, most of my adjustments and bushings were seized up due to the high mileage I purchased my car with. I bought the entire set of bushings from powerflex, minus the upper control arms. I was not looking forward to taking it to a shop, I knew it was going to be a ton of labor involved and I sure as hell had no desire to do it myself in my shed. After meeting and talking with Young at the last meet, I was excited to finally get the work done so the car could be aligned properly. I picked it up a few days ago and the car is amazing. I highly recommend the powerflex bushings if you can swing the labor cost. The car rides over bumps a lot nicer now even with the BC coilovers set fairly stiff. Young is an absolute professional and even sent me pictures of the progress which I will post below. His labor was more than fair and I would drive the hour and a half again in a heartbeat if I ever need any work done again. If you are in the philly area there is no reason not to go to him!

Yeah, that doesn't look like fun at all.

It's so nice to have Young around. We had him do a 90k service, spark plugs, valve adjustment, and center console light bulb replacement on the RL. The car runs so much better and my wife is happy because the car feels so much stronger.

Plus, if you're into building structures, his shop has a lot of history to it. They don't build things like Young's shop any longer.
