    Who all is out here? Starting thread to pool our resources and help each other if need be. Throw a comment in if you are around. Maybe we will get some build days going etc.

    Local shops we've had good experiences with:
    -Tom's Automotive Downtown Sacramento
    -Kidwells Tint Orangevale
    -Linville Brothers Alignment
    -https://www.japaneseenginesandparts.com/
    -East Coast Gear Supply (Code: "TW" for free shipping)
    -RTS Tire shop at Cottage and Fulton. (Let them know if you are paying cash)

    Shops the jury is still out on:
    -Musso Off-Road


    At your own risk:
    -Stellar Built; Expensive; hit and miss on quality. We've seen beautiful work and some sub-par work.
    -Folsom Lake Toyota; parts have been a little cheaper than other local dealerships, wouldn't give their own employee even non-dealer mark-up pricing on a 4Runner. No outwardly bad experiences BUT doesn't sit well that they don't even take care of own employees, makes you wonder how treat customers.
    -Tognottis Auto World; a little pricey, rude parts counter

    Hey all. I’m new to the forum and live in Sac. I have a 92 4Runner and want to take it in for a complete diagnostic/checkup. I got it from my grandpa bone stock 4x4 with 120k miles. Any recommendations on a good mechanic in Sacramento area? Thanks

    I love Tom's Automotive in DT Sac. 8th and Qst. They've always got my back. Tell them Sam with the broke ass Honda sent you.

    For sure! I used to take my Jeep there (because that's what you do with Jeeps) and they were so nice, trying to help me keep that thing alive. Couple owns the shop, Gloria and (I forget her husband's name). Great folks.

    Hey, putting this out there for the Sac area guys/gals... I have a good compressor for changing springs and struts if any of you need that. I bought the tool for like $800 and I am charging $50/pr and a 6pk of 805 to offset the cost of the thing. Once I pay it off I won't be charging to do it. 4Wheel parts charges $150/pr! Rip off. I feel bad charging at all but I gotta cover the money out on the thing. PM me if you end up needing it done.

    Did the ECGS needle bearing swap yesterday. I put a couple tips in the needle bearing issue thread. Message me if that's something you are going to do and I can give you a couple pointers if you can't find it. I was able to finish mine in a half hour.
