Offroad shops near SLC, UT

I took advantage of wheelwell’s amazing deal and picked up a Bilstein 6112/5160 combo for my ‘19 ORP.

Problem is I recently moved to UT and all of my tools/jackstands etc are still in TX and I don’t want to buy duplicates of stuff that will eventually be transported up here. So I’m looking for recommendations on shops in the SLC area that are familiar with 4runners and could install these for me.

Any ideas?

The odd thing is that with as much off-roading that goes on in Utah I don't think there is a consensus shop for Toyota specific off-road and overland builds. A lot of the 4x4 shops will install bolt on parts they sell but I'm not sure there are any shops that specialize and do custom builds. Also if you bring in parts you bought on-line they may be a little reluctant to install them or charge high shop rates. There seem to be a lot of fly by night off road shops in Utah or those that are more centered towards Jeep and rock crawling.

I'd check out Cruiser Outfitters, State Automotive, Agility Customs, Fat Bob's Garage and Ultimate 4x4.

Thanks for the ideas fellas, I’ll call around to those shops and see what they say.

I suppose I should also weigh the cost of the install vs the cost if rebuying some tools/stands/jack.

Yeah, it's really odd that it's so difficult to find a unanimously reputable 4x4 shop here. It seems it's because everyone does their own work, or has a buddy that does work that'll help them out, saving the trouble of having to pay a shop to do it for them.

I would love to have a one stop trust worthy shop though.
