Default Off-Road Shops in OKC?

I have a lifted jeep that i wrecked a while back and am looking to get the lift switched over to my other jeep that isn't lifted. Does anyone have any knowledge of a shop that can switch the suspension and front axle from the lifted one to the not lifted one? The lifted jeep is in southern oklahoma (Ardmore) so if anyone knows of a shop in that area it would be better.

Just about any shop and swap the parts ie mechanic. There is a place off I40 and Meridian you can see from the highway. There is also 4 wheel parts off I35 and 12th Street in Moore. Both are going to be expensive to do. Why not do it yourself?

Because i don't have a shop and it's to cold out and i have to get this done this week or weekend. But if you or someone has a shop to do it i would be willing to get it done but my suspension knowledge is slim to none.

I wish I had a shop...I do all my stuff in the driveway or garage but yeah it cold as snot. If you know a good mechanic they may do it for you. Offroad shops cost a small fortune. I don't know of any shops up in Edmond though.

If I can't do it I typically take my stuff to Christian Brothers Auto off Santa Fe just south of Danforth. However, I do believe it is going to cost you quite a bit regardless of what shop you take it too... I don't have a shop... or garage...or concrete driveway for that matter. So I understand the cold problem, I also have a rain/snow problem too..

It sucks, but I plan on doing a complete frame swap on my 82 Chevy at somepoint.. going to be interesting.

Let me know if you are still needing a shop. I know a few people in Edmond that can probably help at a decent price.

Just on a future note, if you know someone with access to tinker and "ahem" can buy them beer and food "ahem" then you have access to a fully stocked DIY shop with lifts.

Just sayin'
