Landcruiser shop near Pinehurst

[MacK88DO]

Hey y’all! I’m a recent transplant from Texas and I’m looking for a shop near pinehurst that’s familiar with 80 series cruisers that could help with a regear to step up to 37s as well as some other minor odds and ends like a steering gear replacement(already have a rebuild by redhead steering gear waiting to go in) and pesky heater hose. I’m also planning to hit a meet up here soon! Thanks!

Matt

No recs but I moved over here from Austin last year - welcome from another former Texan!

I'm pretty sure @krzyabncanuck is going to start up again when he returns home from the firelines

Does he have a shop or is he a mechanic for hire from home?

Darin Touw has a shop in Raeford

That’s not too far away. Do you know the name of the shop?

Darin Touw lives in Raeford, but he spends most of his time out west as a fire fighter. Before he took the firefighting job a few years ago, he operated his own shop. It was called Canuck’s Cruisers. You may be in luck, because Darin recently announced his intention to retire from his gig out west. Darin knows his way around these trucks. I’m not sure if he will re-open the shop, but he’s always been good about helping folks with their cruisers.

message him directly, he is still on fire duty right now so it may take a bit for him to get back to you

Sorry all. Kinda busy picking back up with Fires and getting ready for Rubithon.

Yes I am retiring from the Feds one last time in either October or November. I will be back then and will be working out of my shop again.

Send me a pm here and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Service can be really spotty in the middle of nowhere though.
