Title: Mechanic Help
Post by: relc on June 21, 2010, 08:42:38 AM

I'm looking for a trustworthy mechanic preferably home based to avoid the crazy dealer/shop rates. Need to have some u-joints replaced and a front axle seal done on my 1980 jeep cj7. Please forward any contact info. thanks

Jay (Lemon-Aid Jay) at Chanda Motors is a very trustworthy mechanic and will not gouge you.  Alot of us take our rigs to him.

Jay just did the u-joints and ball joints on my XJ.  Good work at reasonable prices.

Another vote for Jay from me.

Jay did the mechanical on my TJ before I bought it, and I couldn't believe how cheap it was!

+1 for Jay from me!

+1 on Jay. Reasonable shop rates, quality work, and a stand-up guy.

We are a new shop that just opened up.  I used to do work out of the garage but just upgraded to a shop.  Feel free to give me a call and I'd be happy to give you a free quote.  Also we will beat any written competitor quote!
