Reputable Jeep shop in Southern Virginia

I am looking for a reputable and Jeep savvy shop. The offroad shops down around Virginia beach (at least the one I went to) doesn't really understand too much about Jeeps... i.e. I had to show them how to correctly align the drive shaft using the control arms.
If anyone nows of a shop preferebly around the Hampton roads, Virginia Beach area please let me know. Thanks

im keeping up on this, i want to know where to take my jeep also......besides my garage. i personally use CarQuest right there at the Border Station on the NC side. (252) 435-1190 I talk with either Forrest or Bob. They seem to do quality work and it is certainly cheaper than other places (Eastern Truck and Accesory, dealership, Hi-Dust, Pungo Off-Road, Production Off-Road) Sidenote- i think "Hell's Point Choppers and Off-Road" went out of business, but if you do manage to find them somehow--STAY FAR AWAY!!

There might be another one, but Yorktown is in 757... In my experience with ORI in Tallahassee, FL they overprice labor by a lot too... Maybe it's company wide.

production off road is cheap, they do good work and if you have any probs they will fix it for free try them out. pungo is a rip off and dont know anything, they severly screwed up a soa for me a while ago. all the other places are $$$$ from my experience.

Go to Hall jeep on Virginia Beach Blvd. Ask for Andrew. He's a crusty mech who can make magic happen, He's also in my jeep club. I would have sent you to our web site but we just experienced some webmaster issues.
Our club actually meets at Hall in their upstairs sales meeting room (i'm pretty sure they don't charge a thing for it either)
