I'm always open to helping folks out as well. I'm in Ashburn, VA. Either way, good luck and welcome to the family!

That's a big area! LOL

$200 labor. I'll cover the cost of the shop fees aboard Quantico. This way in addition to getting the services done, you can visually inspect the undercarriage of your vehicle, i.e. inspect CV boots, bushings, etc. If you're looking to document the vehicle and its service, pictures are much easier while on a lift.

Unfortunately Skip has moved but I can answer your question about Quantico Marine Base Auto Craft (Hobby Shop). Quantico Hobby Shop is by far the best and well equipped base auto hobby shop I have ever been to. They have 12 bays ( I think) 8 lifts (2 for lowered cars) and 2 4 post heavy duty lift for oil change. I don't know if you have been to PTuning shop but it's as clean and organized as that. Heated during winter, a place to store car or engine, top of the line alingment machine (no custom allignment), coil over machine, welding machine, huge work bench, all the tools you will need (I bring my tools) and many more.

They are strict but it's too easy, all you have to do is follow the rules. Biggest rule to follow is closed-in shoes, no open toe or shoe with toes and no rattle can painting. Clean as you go, you cannot leave unless your work area is clean.

Let me know , thanks!
