4x4 shops near the OUTER BANKS - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I'm heading down from Canada to the Outer Banks in NC at the end of the month. Anyone know any decent 4x4 shops near there? I'm looking for a few things like an after market steering shaft and tie rod flip insert stuff for my CJ.

youll have to call way ahead of time but there are a few reputable shops down there, the 2 major shops down there are Island Offroad (252) 491-5405 and Coastal Offroad (252) 491-5790. I have never personally dealt with these shops but you do pass by both before crossing the bridge over to the outer banks and i have stopped in both many times since im in the outer banks half of my summer ever since i was a little kid.

Downeast Off-road (252)246-9440 is a quality business too but it's in Wilson which is a little ways off the coast. Alex at Extreme-Offroad does great work but he doesn't stock much so if you need something from him you'd better give him a call in advance.

A couple buddies of mine used to turn wrenches at Coastal Off-Road. One guy quit today and the other guy leaves to go back to school soon. There is nobody there worth talking to anymore. They recommend trying Island Off-Road, they seem to be a decent shop.
