Anyone know a good mechanic?

Hey CP!

Our 1997 Mazda B4000, identical to the Ford Ranger, needs major repairs:

New rear right leaf spring (shop said both sides should be replaced) = $1100

New front brakes + Hub Kits on both sides on the front + New spindle on passenger side = $1500

So we are looking at $2600 quoted for total repairs. Does anyone know a good mechanic/shop that might be able to make a better offer?

Thanks!

I've tried Auto Experts a few times now after a few recommendations for them from previous threads and have been pretty happy with them, they seem fair and honest.

Some suggestions here including my own.

The mechanic for this truck is you!
Go to "pick a part" or whatever and spend about $100.00 for the parts,google the install instructions,borrow the tools if needed and do it yourself.

Otherwise your wasting good money on a truck worth about $1000.00
