    Default Front D60 w/ AirLocker...who would you recommend for a build?



    So, my situation has me needing to hire someone to get the job done for me...called several shops...

    Cold call referrals led me to Chris at Northridge 4x4...they seem cool and knowledgable

    Talked to Brian at Hillside 4x4...also seemed cool and competent

    Anyone have any experience with those above or have a good referral base on personal experience?...needing em to swap in the axle as well which will require fabrication...

    Thanks in advance

    Western Driveline in Aurora has been good to me. Reasonable prices and quick turn.

    I talked to those guys as well...they won't do any fabrication and told me that they have only done a handful of air lockers...and referred me to someone else who reffered me to Northridge 4x4...but thanks for the suggestion

    A drive for you (thus I held off seeing how the thread would go)... 4x4 Offroad in Fort Collins tended repair (err - replacement) of my ARB's. I'd recommend them. I do not know if they do fab work.

    Sessions Motorsports if you are willing to go to Fort Collins.

    Normally I'd also recommend Brucker Brothers but he may be way out on schedule due to his recent move to a new shop.

    x2 - He did the perches on my rear axle to stretch my wheelbase while doing the cage. It does look like the shop is coming along nicely and should be taking on projects soon, wouldn't hurt to send him a PM and see.

    I'll recommend Brian at Hillside 4x4. He's competent and he and his wife, Brenda, are good people. He's done gears in my Jeep and got my G/F's back up and running after a Boulder Jeep dealer messed up her front diff.

    Toby at rock rash does good work. but he stays pretty busy so if you're in a hurry he may not be your guy. but quality work is worth the wait
