Good mechanic in E. Phoenix/Scottsdale?

Where do you guys in this area take your trucks? Looking for a trustworthy/knowledgeable TOYOTA mechanic...not a generic/fixes-all-vehicles one.

I was just curious, though I think I do need the RR axle seal changed. I'm tired of non-Toyota "wise" mechanics and going to the dealer speaks for itself.

You guys here and 4x4wire have already helped me out (changed my own shocks and steering stabilizer , my first major repairs).

Thanks for the tip KING. How long have you been going to this place?

Well, personally, I haven't had any thing done by this shop.

My friend has though, he replaced his manual transmission in a week after a month of a NON-TOYOTA mechanic tried to do it and failed, which he then gave up, he's also replaced my friend's power steering pump, change the bushing on the A-arms. That's about all I can think of right now........

He uses TOYOTA genuine parts.
