Good Shops in Anchorage?

Anybody know good, honest mechanics/shops around town?

My girlfriend needs a brake job on her Jeep Grand Cherokee and I don't know of any good places to go. It seems hard to find good service these days w/anything... don't want to get ripped off.

Thanks!

99% of the time I do my own work... I don't live in Anchorage or have access to a garage, good tools, etc like I do at home so I have no choice.

Anybody else? Thanks in advance.

ztodd377 is gaining momentum as a positive member of FTE.
Ya know, for parts and some beer I can do the brakes in my garage at my house. Maybe B-uno would be willing to help as well. I live in downtown anchorage.
