In need a recommendation for a good Toyota mechanic in SE Michigan (preferably southern Oakland County).

Did you ever find a mechanic? I'm planning on lifting my 4Runner in the next couple weeks.

Ditto - Plymouth Township area. Did you find someone? I've been looking at local shops, and trying to figure out who I should trust most. I'm not a do-it-yourselfer for jobs that require shop-quality tools. I have all the right stuff for re-finishing my basement -but not my vehicle!

Bros, I live in Michigan too, around Farmington/Livonia area. I might've seen you guys on the road lol

My mechanic's name is Scott from Farmington Auto Professional (Grand River / Power Road) He's done a lot on my car and charges like $70/hr. Because I've come to him so much to work on my car (TBU upgrade, the whole timing belt kit etc.) I like the fact that he's okay with me buying the parts and I just pay him for labor.

What I don't like or might be a deal breaker for you:
He only has a 1 car garage...so I have to make sure I get an appointment.

My coworker has a guy that runs a Midas out in Waterford that quoted me $200 for the lift install. I should be getting it done not this weekend but the following. If I run into any issues I'll reach out to you for your contact! If not, I'll check with this guy and see if he minds me sharing his info here for some more SE MI 4Runners.

My mechanic Scott is still good and he's not retired yet.
Just call and schedule ahead

Thanks. Being relatively new at the lifting game, what would you recommend as far as the parts and/or process? This will be mainly for trail riding.
