Looking for a machine shop recommendation

  • After 160,000 miles, off road abuse and marginal maintenance I had a piston drop its skirt into the pan. Other than that one piston, the engine looks great inside. I'm going to order a set of pistons and I need a shop to press them onto the rods for me. Does anyone have a local (Newark - Elkton area) they would recommend. I'm pressed for time and need to get this thing back together quick. Any leads would be appreciated.

  • Christiana Auto used to do that type of work. Phone: (302) 322-7869


    They did the machine work on my motor some years ago.
