Welcome, I'm a little farther South ( Springfield) so can't help with local shops, but we do have a shop about an hour west of here, great service as he is a Jeeper also so he understands, and also sells Rubicon express lifts and others and has always had the best deals. If you need infor pm me.
Also if your looking for some wheeling places we have an event coming up in May, we wheel private trails and is a great time for stock vehicles to jeeps on 38's

Thanks for the "heads up" on the trails...and the event in May. I'll check out the website for sure. My wife and I are very new to this so I'm not sure what to expect. THe other issue is I may not get my new RUbi until June...a little too late??? Thanks again!

I do all my mods myself , nothing major, just a BB w/ shocks. They only thing i would have a shop do is a gear install, if I were to do gears. Everything else i can handle myself.
If you are looking for tires, check out TD4L.com. They are in addison so you can do warehouse pickup and save some $$ on the shipping charges.

Hello from Chicago --- I had my muffler and a procomp BB installed by Mike's Quick Stop in Alsip. They were wonderful all the way around and I'd recommend them to anyone. I can get you the exact adress if you'd like. 111th and just west of ridgeland ave. Anyway, after my they installed the BB I needed the bumpstops shortened (tried to do it myself and it was taking forever), so I stopped back by the shop to see what they'd charge (NAAPA quoted me $60). They put it back on the rack, cut the stops short in 5 minutes and sent me on way free of charge. The install for front and back BB was $200. They're not a 4x4 shop, but they can get the job done!
