West End Machine Shop

I need some recommendations from people for a good west end, preferably Oakville/ Burlington, machine shop? I need to get 4 stepped tubes made so that I can fab my new front struts and rear struts for the race car. Should be pretty simple to do, I think.

Oh yeah, I may need to get 4 ears made as well so that I can bolt my spindles on to the new struts. The rears will be a bit trickier as I have to add the eyebolt to the bottom of the strut, but the same sleeve should work there as well.

For those who haven't seen the strut drawings, they are brand new 3 ways with a remote canister made for the Cougar. I have 2 and 1/2 sets, so rather than let 1 set sit idle, I thought I should use them on the race car. The Dynamics that I have on the Cougar make Mosport feel like a billiard table.

The addition of these shocks should give me at least a couple of tenths, LOL.

Eric
