Great suspension install work by Matt in Ventura

Hey guys, just wanna vouch for Matt (mwray8909 on T4Rorg) and his installation work on my 4Runner. He squeezed me into his schedule to install a set of Pro takeoffs (shocks/coils on all four corners) on my KDSS Trail. He's extremely thorough and put me at ease, taking the time to show me what he looks for during his installs. We completed the work in his driveway in less than 5 hours- when I say we, I mean I handed him tools and lent a hand here and there. He does excellent work at a fair price. On a side note, the Pro setup rides nicely. Haven't had a chance to stretch it out yet but will update my thread when I do.

He's just above Ventura, CA in Casitas Springs, though he will be moving soon. Here's his number- [taken offline just in case]

Thanks again Matt!

 

Yes, he asked me to. I don't think he has an account on this forum yet, and he'd like to pick up repeat business.

 

Thanks @4X4Runner for making sure I was ok with my number being out there. I for sure said it was ok. @mynameistory ut was nice to meet you! I really hope you get to test it all out soon.

Rides smooth. I have E-load tires and bumps felt very squared-off and jolty with the stock suspension. This rounds off roughness nicely. I found out later that I may have different rear springs (all 4Runners, including the Pro, share the same stock rear springs). These may be superflex coils from Toytec as they are definitely a little higher than stock.

Subtle lift and performance gain for cheap. No need to swap UCA's or worry about the driveline angles.

I bought the takeoffs from another member (he was swapping to an icon setup) and then brought them over to Matt for install.

 

@mynameistory

Are you still in contact with Matt?

 

No I'm afraid not. Haven't talked to him since the install.

 

Well if for any reason you happen to bump into him? Let us know.

 

Can do. When I was leaving he mentioned that he and his lady might start transitioning to "the van life" in her big RV for the next few years to go exploring. He might not even be in California any more. Have you tried his number in the first post? If it's no longer working I can edit it out so it's not on the internet forever.

 

Didn't try his number because it's been so long. Editing it out is probably a good idea. imo

Thanks for the update.

Edit: I'm in hopes of finding a conscience wrench bender that works from home. It's not about saving money, it's about him not having a boss to contend with. I'd happily pay for quality work.
