What is the best place to get new suspension for your car?

I'm around south Arlington, TX. My daughter's car is a 2006 Nissan Altima 3.5 and it looks like one of the cv joint boot is busted so it will need to be changed soon. Also, the shocks appear to be in bad shape all around the car. I could probably do all the work, but just don't have the time these days. Is there a national branded company that someone would recommend?

Shocks? Anywhre that does repairs or tires.
Cv joints, pretty much the same.
Pep Boys, etc.

I imagine the suspension uses struts and not just shocks. Most shops charge $100 or more per side and 200+ for a CV replacement. So you are probably looking at $500 in labor for a job that a couple hours. I would try and find a small independent shop, they usually have smaller overhead costs so they charge less.

When I lived in Dallas, and had a older Nissan, I took it to Clay Cooley Nissan on 183 in Irving. I tried some other places and got screwed over with bad parts, etc. One mechanic in Addison, told me he replaced my rotors on a brake job and I had them lock up on me a week later. When I took it out to Clay Cooley, they gave me the old ones they took off so I could use them in my report to the BBB.
They were the kind of shop that would do whatever was the least expensive if they thought I shouldn't spend too much money on my old car. I hope they are still that way now.
