Donny helped out a friend with a 98 Jeep Cherokee with some major issues. I wanted to point out once again how lucky we are to have mechanics like him on this site.
I am absolutely in awe of how much work he did for my friend especially for the price he charged and the depth that he went to solve all his issues.
Here is a list of what he repaired and replaced for my buddy:
