West side shop recommendations

[KingBeeIII]

Just like a degenerate sibling, I only come around when I need something.

The '05 4Runner (V8) started to throw some codes, VSC off, VSC trac, and the check engine light. Last time this happened it was the gas cap, and I went with the checker brand, so I was hopeful for a similar issue. Well, it wasn't. Temp gage started going crazy. Coolant level was good but it smelled hot. Took it up to have the codes read and it ended up being 0117. The google search results only yielded one possible cause I felt comfortable tackling, the thermostat. Needless to say, I didn't get lucky as she's still running hot. Probably going to be a sensor. Any shop recommendations? I'm in Peoria and will be heading to LHM Toyota to pay too much unless someone can point me in a better direction.

Thanks in advance, fellas.

I am in the west side and try to do all of the work on my 80 myself, but I have been exceptionally happy taking my rig to Gary at ToyoTekAZ. He's not west side, more central, but I am more than willing to deal with the extra distance to him.

I have heard good things about ARK Fabrications near I-10 & Avondale, but never been there personally so I can't vouch for them.

A little further than I wanted to drive in a rig that is overheating, but I'll keep that in mind regardless. LHM is about 3 miles from the house as opposed to 9 for ToyoTek.

I appreciate the info!
