Look around for offroading / hot rodding / etc. as they tend to do this kind of work. Look at this thread for more details. |
Thanks, guys. And if anyone happens to know of such a shop in the Portland or Seattle areas, let me know! I know we've got a lot of off-road enthusiasts here, so maybe I'll figure out where they go...
Beta, I understand what you're saying about the mod, and that sounds like exactly what I'm looking for. Looking at the thread you linked, I realize that you literally just installed your 3.91 last month? Any updates since then? Have you made it through the break-in period and had some fun?
