Differential Shop Western Mass

Can anyone recommend a differential shop in the Western Mass area? Central Mass is ok too but I’d prefer something close to home.

My mechanic diagnosed my wife’s 4Runner driveline noise as either a pinion or gear issue but he won’t work on differentials. He recommended a friend of his, but after talking with the second guy he decided that he didn’t want to work it. Said he had trouble getting parts last time and ended up buying from the dealer. He said for that cost I should just go to the dealer or try to buy a used axle. I feel like there should be a third option....

thanks

Loads of stories of yotas that went to a local guy for dif work and end not good.

I’ve been bit myself, twice. I send mine to gearsinstall.com (Zuk) awesome work.
