Personally. I get all my stuff done at Broken Axle.  Daves great.  I'm getting my axles done there. But he also works on POS Kia.

Thanks guys.

Economy Cylinder Head Rebuilders

Had some work done there on a Honda I drove before I was enlightened to the Jeep world. Great work and a fair price.

Billy does great work!  I paid more than planned, but had him do the whole thing and re-grind valve seats, new valve seals and planed.
Picked it up the next day and installed that night.
Also, better prices on gasket kit and head bolts than anywhere I could find.
Gorgeous!
