Local suspension/alignment recommendations?

Hey all, just picked up a factory sport suspension (I know, not the greatest, but I got a great deal on it) to go on my Cooper, and I'm looking for recommendations on where to get the suspension installed and where to get an alignment done that is slightly more autocross-friendly. I would undertake the suspension myself, but live in the city and don't have a garage to work in. Somehow trying to do it out in the street isn't all that appealing! I also have a buddy up in Springfield, IL that's volunteered the use of his garage, but there's no place up there that could do the alignment the way I'd want it, and I don't really want to drive an unaligned car 100 miles back to the Lou...

If anyone knows a good shop that can do either or both, I'd really appreciate it.

Miller Brothers in University City. They have an amazing alignment setup.

Thanks, looks like a good bet. Seems like the kind of place that might understand using something other than factory alignment specs...
