Default Ford Mechanic/tuner Melb east?

Hey all, I was going to book my BA xr6t into Pit Lane in Frankston, but it looks like they may have closed up... bummer! I want to do the diff bushes and replace the waste gate actuator (which I have already got) before I put her up for sale. Can anyone recommend a place in Melb who's reliable and reasonably priced?

Cheers!

I'll give it a try, but he hasn't been online here since Jan and the phones are off the hook and Facebook has been taken down. Hopefully all's good with them.

Oh damn, I was planning on getting some maintenance work done and get the tune they did over 12 years ago checked. Hopefully it's just temporary and Ratter and family is all good.

CMS Performance in Seaford is in that region, they're only a tuner though I'm not sure if they do mechanical work though I think they're just tuners:

Alternatively, Maxx Performance in Dandenong knows their way around Falcons and does mechanical work and tuning I believe.

Sudandenong isn't quite Frankghanistan, but its not that far

Thank you Mr Cozzo, I'll check them out. May the sun shine brightly on Brunswick and Footiscray.

Shame to hear that XXX747. I just hope that it wasn't due to illness or misfortune.

Cheers!
