Any good Mechanics in the greater Tacoma/Puyallup WA area?

[-Cp-]

Does anyone know of any good (trust-worthy) Mechanics in the greater Tacoma/Puyallup WA area? Who really know the FJ80's?

Thank you..

Bumping this 9(!) year old thread because I'm looking for the same. A shop or knowledgeable individual well-versed in the nuances of the FZJ-80. Specifically for an inspection of an LX450 in this case. Please PM me if interested, willing to pay.

Reckon you've already checked the WA Evergreen Cruiser Clubhouse?

I'm on a thread in there as well that someone else created but not the most active of clubs unfortunately.

TorFab?

^^^^^^Never worked with Torfab but have only heard good things. If I was in the Puget Sound area that's who I would call.

Torfab is excellent. They're up in Everett so it's a descent drive but worth it. I'm also from Tacoma and they're just about the only place I'll trust.

Yeah Torfab is the only agreed upon recommendation I have heard in the greater Seattle area. However this particular seller is down in Puyallup so I think Everett (1.5hr each way) would be a bit far. Thanks though! I'll figure something out.

Living in Puyallup is like living here in Skagit Co - you suck it up & do whatcha gotta if you want top level stuff.

This isn't a 7-11 run. The mountain does not come to Mohammad.

And if it's flat fubar, you want a rollback tow truck.

I wish you would stop sugar coating things @LINUS no body will get it

Genetics.

I got it from my Pops - he's a black belt in brutal truths & a purple belt in backhanded compliments.

I have no direct experience but have heard through the grapevine that ARE Automotive used to be cruiser specific but have branched out. I think they’re in Lakewood or UP.
