I'm looking to have some work done on my jeep ... new upper arms installed, maybe have a look into the rear subframe a little (I have this annoying suspicion in the back of my mind that my encounter with that rock in Cleghorn did a little more than was visible at the time, like maybe bending the subframe a little bit). Thanks! |

I'd suggest 4wheelparts on glenwood ave. I bought my lift from them and they know their stuff. heres the link to the main site: http://www.4wheelparts.com/ and heres the link to the Raleigh store: http://www.4wheelparts.com/stores/Store ... px?sNo=211 |

Is there any other? Not that I don't like them or anything. I'm sure they're good .. talked to ... who was the owner? The problem is that they don't install anything they don't sell and since Al's A arm is from small vendor they claim they could be liable. To me this is pure bullpoop of course ... like I would sue them if the arm break, you know what I mean? So, on with the search

Bill - any shop in the area is going to do the old "we don't install customer parts" route. Given any thought to making it a do it ourselfer project? I'd lend whatever muscle and tools I have... Just get an alignment when we're done and call it good? |

I am curious about any reputable mechanics. The Jeep it's "mine" perse, but I'm going to be doing the minor upkeep. We have a CRD, to boot. I am not sure I want to change the timing belt on it, when the times comes. I've never replaced the belt on a turbo vehicle. We've got a long way to go before it's even due, I just want to know what to expect. This saved me in Chapel Hill when the little bugger wouldn't top 30MPH (air in the fuel filter)! |

I'm sorry to dig up old threads some more; but I'm sure you know, new members, old issues  . Anyway, there is this mechanic I have been going to in downtown Raleigh called 'Supreme Auto'. They helped me out when I realized I did not have the wiring skill necessary to finish my hitch. Also, I've had them do a few other things that they did very well. It is a little on the pricey side, so I don't use them all the time, but they are very nice. If somebody else has experience with them, I would be very interested to hear it, as I am still not 100% about this place.
Here's the Website: http://www.supremeautoservice.com/index.html Also, I have used Turn Key Tire, and had a great experience: http://www.turnkeytire.com/ I'm pretty sure both are family/locally owned and operated. |
