You're not looking hard enough. Atlanta will have all the shops you need in dozens if you long enough.

What I would do is start visiting the custom shops and any hot rod supplies or speed shops and asking who has a large press and the experience to do this.

All you need is a press and some steel stock the right size to hold the arm and push on the balljoint end only.

If you had the stock, and the press you could do it yourself.

Lot's of shops don't want to work on VW's.

I can name about 5 shops locally in a TN town of 20K that would do this work.

Ciao!
