Default Any trustworthy shops around Bellevue

Well today I was going to change the oil in my JK and the drain plug is not moving. I stripped the shit out of it. I had the dealership in yakima change my oil this last time and they must have welded it back on. I would have done it myself but my mom insisted in having them do it. I will never have anyone else do it again. I ordered a no spill drain plug I saw in JP mag a few months ago. So I am waiting for that before trying to change the oil. I am wondering if there is anyone that is trustworthy that can remove my stripped drain plug and install the new one when it comes in?

I wish there was an offroad kind of shop on the eastside, I would be there everyday haha. As for a normal car shop, Im not sure. If my jeep ever needs work I go to the dealer if its simple or used to drive to olympic 4x4 (now Im going to Northridge 4x4 though)

Are you implying that you have a GTR?

I'm not sure if that qualifies as an implication but, yes I own a GTR...would you like to buy it?
CNC doesn't specialize in 4wd, but they will do a lot of general things if you ask nicely. They have always gone above and beyond in my dealings with them.

Oh and for oil changes (since I now live in an apartment) I just go to Rairdons Jeep in Kirkland http://www.chryslerjeepdodgeofkirkland.com/index.htm

Get on the email list and they always have coupons for $20 and $30 oil services. I guess they could also take care of the stripped nut, but might be more expensive?

I might take you up on the offer, I want to save as much money as possible as I have none. And don't want to spend money on an oil change when I have the oil and filter. Still waiting on the new plug to get here. Thanks all for the replies.
