Shop for corner balance - Ventura County

Hey all,
I'm putting together a plan to lower my 84 Carerra, install the bump steer kit and then bring it in for alignment & corner balancing. Right now it's still sitting at stock US height.

I planned on lowering the car and installing the bump steer kit myself, but obviously need a shop to do the corner balancing.

Anyone recommend a shop in Ventura County (93021 area code) that does good suspension work on early 911s?

Also, what else should I do 'while in in there'

I plan on turbo tie rods and bump steer kit.

The car is an 84 but only has 52k. Anything else I should revamp? Any bushings etc?

If you want to go north there's a guy, called Guy btw, at Smith Volvo in San Luis Obispo. He worked on my various cars for years while we lived on the Central Coast. I assume he's still there. He has his own shop for decades but moved over to Smith a few years ago.

If for some reason they can't help, I'm sure they can refer you to someone. They're terrific!
