Mechanic recommendation in Indy?

Who do you recommend to work on diesels in the Indianapolis area? I moved up here this past November and am still learning my way around. I'm in the Beech Grove area.

I need to get my ball joints done and don't feel qualified or equipped to do it myself. One of my co-workers recommended Rightaway Auto. Anyone else dealt with them in the past? They quoted $350 labor for the balljoints on my '99 F-250SD.

Never heard of them. I don't take mine to a shop to have that work done, I go to my Uncle's place and he does them for me for free, I just have to buy the parts. I'll ask around for good shops, though.

Riley Park Tire in Greenfield did my 2001 F-350. The parts & labor were right at $450 that includes alignment & everything. Or you can try Bob Holland Frame Alignment in Greenfield as well. Bob does great work just not the fastest.

He is located west of the courthouse on 40 just past Pizza King, on the north side of the road. Not alot of signs, blueish square building across from a rent a car place.
