G Wagen Mechanic near Morristown, NJ?
I live a little west of Morristown, NJ. The dealership treats me like a king BUT cannot touch any parts that they dent sell me. Does anyone have a guy that they use and trust? I would like some upgrade advice .

Woflgang's over in Tenafly is a well respected shop, but last I heard they were really backed up with work for many months. I had to make an appointment 4 months out but never went through with it as I fixed the issue myself. They really mostly do maintenance work though.
What type of upgrade advice are you looking for? I've gotten a lot of good advice on this forum and over at ClubGWagen. Not as much high HP mods, and not as much on the M157 in general, but everything else G related. HP Stuff I would talk to VRP as they seem to be one of the go-to's for the M113k and the M157.
For mod advice, I've gotten a lot of advice and recommendations from Jack @ JackWagonOverlanding. He's always been great taking a lot of time explaining what is available for the W463, what is needed as a total package, the pricing differences, etc. Highly recommended.

Contact JackWagon Overlanding. He is great and takes the time to make sure you understand everything you need (or don't need).

I can help with suggestions as I went through this 2 years back when I got my G55. Swapped out my G55 springs for G63 springs and Fox 2.0 shocks. Replaced all the bushings in the front, caster correction bushings, Fox steering stabilizer, etc.
Jack will of course be the best source of knowledge about part availability/delivery, current/new offerings on the market, updated pricing, and best match for what you're looking for. Now that VikingOffroad closed, there aren't that many good sources for advice on a 1:1 basis.
