I am seeking recommendations for a good suspension repair shop in the mid-west. Close to Chicago and Tiger experienced preferred!

British Auto Service in Milwaukee, WI might be worth a try. They work on obscure stuff (steering rack for a Rover P5) so they may be what you need. Number is (414) 273-0007. Nice guys, Craig and John are the owners. If not, try Sportscar Services in Mequon, WI. (262)238-1133, speak to Bill. Good luck, let me know how you get on.

It's about 5 hours away but Tiger automotive in Dayton Ohio has been working on Tigers and doing restorations since the cars were new. The owner, Doug jennings is a member of TEAE and a good guy.

Thanks for the replies. I found a British car repair shop in Elgin, IL (LaFox Automotive)that is near me, and they agreed to work with Doug Jennings at Tiger Auto. Doug is going to straighten the crossmember. I might take the opportunity to upgrade the fulcrum pins to the 4140 units he sells. I hope to be Tigering by September!
