1995 80 Series, 202,000 miles, need mechanic recommendation in Charleston, SC

The Bear · 09-30-08, 10:40 PM

It's been awhile since I have been on this forum, and I just have a quick question. I recently drove my 1995 80 Series from Portland, Maine to Charleston, South Carolina... hit 200,000 miles on the way down! I now live in Charleston. The truck is having a few issues...mainly running slightly hot, A/C intermittently turning off, needs an alignment, oil change, etc. Can anyone recommend a trust-worthy and Land Cruiser knowledgeable mechanic in the area that can take care of my tuck? I will be here for three years (stationed at the Air Force Base) and would like to find someone to use long-term.

Thank you!

You may want to cross-reference your question to the 60 series forum. I believe they have a thread dedicated to "the mechaincs in your area."
