With business holdings in Jackson and Three Way, Librado Garza has moved into Milan, where he, Juan Garza and Tomas Rubio have opened LJ Auto Repair at 1038 South First Street.

“We were working at the company’s automobile dealership at Three Way and decided to open our own shop,” Tomas Rubio said, “We opened about six months ago. We were nervous, because there are other shops around, but we’re seeing new and former customers.”

The newest venture adds to a portfolio that includes LJ Motors in Three Way at 282 U.S. Highway 45 West, LJ Western Wear, 100 Vann Drive in Jackson, and LJ Dumpster Rentals in Bells.

At LJ Auto Repair, Tomas and Chris Valenzuela excel in maintenance and service – which includes oil changes, tune-ups, wheel bearings, axles, and shocks.

Customers also have a variety of tires to select from at LJ Auto Repair.

“We don’t do alignments, but we mount and balance tires,” Rubio said, “We sell just about any brand of tires, including used tires.

“We also install brakes, rotors, and work on air conditioning and heating.”

Rubio said the company has four different suppliers they work with.

“We do what we can to get the best prices,” Rubio said, “We’re the authorized dealer for ‘Rough Country,’ the only (dealer) in Milan. We usually get the products we order in a day or two.”

Rubio said Rough Country has products for automobiles manufactured by Chevrolet, General Motors, Jeep Wrangler, Toyota, Dodge, Ford, Honda, Kia, Hyundai, and Mercedes Benz.

“We also do maintenance on diesel trucks,” Rubio said, “Oil changes, tires and brakes.”

Rubio said the company is not prepared to work on electric vehicles.

“We’re not at that point,” Rubio said, “But I think we would be prepared.”
