5450 Carlisle Pike,
Mechanicsburg, PA 17050

Only problem is that you need a ID card to get in the base.... so if you have one, then by all means head up.

Just use the jackstands, do one axle at a time, they work fine

I'm right outside of philly, so it depends on what part of jersey. I'm going to clean + paint my calipers so I figure 2 hours to clean all 4 and put a couple coats on
