Newbie

Hello everyone,

NEWBIE led here by EricG earlier today. I have a 97 FZJ80 (all stock for now) and was wondering if anyone had recs on a good Cruiser shop in town. I live in Rockrimmon. My bearings need to be repacked and my brakes need a vacuum bleed because they don't stop for anything. I am amateur at best on working on the Cruiser and don't have the time to repack the bearings since my wife totes my kids around in the 80 a lot. Thanks in advance for any help and hope to toss a few with you all soon.

Take Care,

COCruiser

Welcome to MUD, and the CLC Section! maybe we will see you at the meeting on Tuesday?

Brake Bleed is Easy.. just a little time consuming! read up on how to do it, you should be able to do it yourself!

Wheel Bearings are not too bad either..

Id think these are good projects to start with doing yourself!, you will learn alot about your truck doing these things yourself, i enjoy working on my junk! when i got my cruiser i did not know the first thing about changing oil! 4 years later and ive turned just about every bolt on the truck!

if you do want a shop to do it, there is always the toy dealer, (club members get a discount i belive), or any shop in town should be able to tackle the job!
