I can't help you on the Portland area but I have a quick story to relate
to you.
When I had my front suspension rebuilt the shop assured  me that they
knew exactly what was required. I left my bag of parts and two repair
manuals.
A couple of days after picking up my newly repaired Westy I noticed a
nice collection of greasy fingerprints in my manuals at the suspension
section. I'm glad I left the manuals and I'm glad they found them useful.
