    Hey all, will anyone be around Thursday that could let me borrow a jack? Gotta get these silly wheels off.

    Anybody in Bend know of a decent mechanic? Wife's Subaru motor grenaded over the weekend. Looking for someone that can drop a Japanese takeout motor in so we can get the car going and flip it. Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Looks like mixed reviews. I have never personally used them.

    That's where it is currently sitting. Haven't had good previous experiences with them and it seems like they are trying to bend us over a bit. Looking to get a second opinion from a different shop.

    We have taken our 2007 Outback to Subaguru for quite a while. They just did the head gasket last year and were reasonable. I would give them a thumbs up. I have heard good things about Happy Danes, you could check them out too.

    We've had a CEL for the last year. Brought it to them 4 times in that year, and they were never able to fix it. I was finally able to diagnose it, and it was traced back to poor workmanship on their part. Cost over $1k and 4 trips just so that I could diagnose and fix it. They are currently asking $4500 for a used motor with 100k miles (installed). Just trying to explore options after seeing their work the first time.

    Yeah I probably wouldn't use them again then.
    Idk I have had the worse luck with mechanics and went back to doing all my own work.
    I was referred to a guy in Prineville I'll have to ask his name again .

    I've had decent luck with Subaguru. Wade Bryant is a good shop with the AAA approval rating.

    I didn't have him do whole exhaust but when I relocated my shocks he cut off from the muffler back and bent an entire tailpipe. For like $40 and super quick I walked to bimart and bam had it done fully welded.
    Real old school guy I'd def go back.
    The guy in bend wanted $120 to do the same thing.

    Hey Benders, any recommendations on a junkyard that might be hoarding yotas? I’d like to score a new gas tank(and related items) for my 02. Thanks!

    Hey Mike. Also just saw PM you sent like 3 weeks ago. I haven't been on for a while. I'll shoot one back in a bit. I need some sleep at the moment.

    I sent you my # in a PM. Hit me up. Now that my wife and kids have finally made it out here, my schedule is a little less open, but we could still likely get together for a brewski.
