need a shop in or around st.louis mo

need a shop to do my head studs and stuff. anywhere besides mcs if possible.

was going to do it myself but the guys helping me is getting transfered to a place in chicago.

river city diesel is in peoria,IL I have herd a lot of good about them

thats almost 5 hours from me dont think i want my truck that far away for a few weeks

where are you at?

st.louis missouri

I don't know of anything real close river city diesel is about the closest one and they do great work from what I have herd. I am right across the river in Godfrey,IL what part of stl are you in?

Why are you afraid to send it out if its done right. I have trucks brought in from several hours away weekly. Heck I even have a customer that hot shots all over the 14 states around his indiana base, He picks trucks up and brings them back all the time for me

just make sure you go to a good shop...sometimes driving the extra distance is worth it. We are prolly way to far for you but search around...I dont know if any sponsor shops are in that area....

ill go that far if neccesary but figured there has to be something closer. im by arnold imperial area.

Peoria isn't 5 hours from St Louis, and it would definitely be worth having them do it!

im an hour south of st.louis. so it would b around 5 hours

Farmer PM if you want, I am from imperial as well and have used RCD.

Farmer, PM me if you like I used RCD ONE TIME

rb69 who are you and how long ago did you have your truck worked on ?
IM a tech at rcd been there 6 mon now and do all the 6.0 head stud jobs . we have people from all over bring trucks to us even had a guy from canada trailer his down for exhaust egr del and oil cooler.
i was even talking to the boss today about doing a cheep ass package as iv read about the 2 grand head core .. so that package would just be a gasket and stud job with no kind of guarantee..

Farmer,

Im down in Festus and it only took me 3.5 hrs to get to RCD with a truck that had a down cylinder. Best thing i ever did. PM me if you have any questions. Or depending on what ur doing i may be able to help ya out!!

PurPerformance is in St. Charles,but i wouldn't recomend them.

they wont do head studs. i called them before. I am going with a friend of mine that is a laid of diesel tech from a ford dealer to do it. then i know its done right with no questions and i can get whatever parts i want.

Has anybody tried Capital Diesel in Holt Summit?

Capital Diesel, LLC - Jefferson City (http://www.capitaldiesel.com/)

I know this is an old thread but what was the outcome of this? I am about to go down the same road and looking for a local shop. Supposedly this 6.0 has the egr delete and studs already but they used black onyx gaskets and it seems they have failed.
Thanks
Tim

Where are you located? Yes, this is a very old thread lol.
