    Good diesel shops/mechanics in the waukesha/meno. falls area?

    I'm not having any problems with my truck at this time (well at least motor wise ), but was hoping I could get some recommendations for good diesel shops and/or mechanics in the waukesha/menomonee falls area that do good work for a good price, for when the inevitable happens.

    Any suggestions?

    What's the word on Huckstorf as far as rebuilds go? Just curious because nobody has mentioned them but hear about them all the time on the radio.

    82/hour seems pretty good to me, they're doing my gauges. Hard to find shops a lot cheaper than that unless they're workin for cash out of their own home.

    still cant believe mike daily drives that, its crazy! If you have the choice deal with John and not mark. mark has always been short with me and seems better then everyone else.

    probably john he deals with most of the business end and mark deals with the shop...really gauges are super easy to do...did mine myself and no problems yet, althought i think my egt gauge is crapping out or the probe is bad it jumps around every now and then.

    I was going to give you a shout but they are right by my girls place and we had some stuff planned so it was convenient.
    I'll be comin to ya for any fuel/engine repairs I need. Might have it thrown on the dyno while its there...maybe not, the truck's a turd even with a tune.
