Hello 80 series owner here

[raynyc]

hello all ,
i just picked up a 96 LX450 today and hope to fix it up from all the great advice on this forum !
i guess my first question is does anyone have a trusted mechanic in Brooklyn or near Brooklyn to do work on the axles of my truck , i bought it knowing both axles were seeping oil and grease from the pumpkin and by the calipers. i asked a couple of local guys and quickly found out that it was out of there scope for work.

any advice appreciated

Ray

Unfortunately, Cruiser specialty shops are pretty rare in the tri-state area. Dave Crum's shop is within reasonable driving distance in Butler, NJ. He's a metal fabricator and an LC specialist.

Metro is Jose Rivera. I haven't heard much from him lately. Also an LC guy, but specializes more in bodywork.
