Looking for a reputable 4wd mechanic located in the Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne. Have been using 4Wd central in Chelthenham however they've become too popular and booked out 6 weeks ahead...
Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
Cheers
Nic

Not eastern suburbs and not specifically 4x4 so may not be what you want but I reckon Valiance in South Melbourne are great. They're the only mechanic I'll take my Patrol to if it needs something I can't do myself. No bullshit, honest mechanics who do a great job.

Hey Nic,

I've used both Outback 4WD (Bayswater) and Can Do 4x4 (Lilydale) and have been very happy with their service.

Cheers,
Dan

I used “Can Do 4x4” in Lilydale to get a lift and suspension setup done, and a full service not long after that. They were great. Not sure what wait times are like these days though.

Hi mate. There is a mob called ATOC in Belgrave South. Can’t remember exact details but if you google, you’ll find his details. Good luck

Bayswater Fleet Maintenance. They look after our company vehicles but do a lot of work on 4WD's re: suspension etc. Quite a few custom rigs in there every time I go in there,
