The only places I can think of is Bill's Used Parts and Agee's Used Parts. Both are located across from each other in Christiansburg on Radford Road.
From B-burg: Take 460 into C-burg towards downtown C-burg. After you pass Sheetz you will go another 4 or 5 lights(not sure since it has been a while since I went this route). You will pass a Kroger on your left and start down a hill. At the bottom of the hill is a stop light. Take a right. I think you go to the 2nd light and make a right onto Radford Rd (US 11). Travel about 4-5 miles and Bills will be on the left and another 1/8 mile Agees will be on the right.
Not sure if they will have any ZJ's so I would call first.
The other junkyard I use to frequent was D&M on Ellet Road, but they mostly deal in older vehicles.

Don't know how far you're willing to drive, but there are two here in Roanoke that have quite a many ZJs, 4.0L, 4.7L, 5.2L, 5.9L, etc. If you're willing to drive, I can look into it for you.

Estes is also pretty close. They are in Pilot which is right outside of Christiansburg. Its a nice drive through the mountain.

I just found this website:
http://www.nrvbusiness.com/index.php?op ... &Itemid=26 it has pretty much everything auto around here, even the #'s and addresses for Bills, A.Agees, and D&M, unfortunately nobody has a pick n' pull lot (thats all I do back home). If anyone knows of a pick n' pull lot could you post up, I'm looking for an xj front driveshaft, some tj flares and possibly a np231 or 242 t-case to pull.

Depending on what you are looking for you can be accompanied out into the lot at Bill's. At least everytime I have been there they drove me out to the Wrangler section and let me pull my parts, then drove me back to the office. D&M will let you walk around their yard usually, then you come back to the office and tell the guy where the vehicle is and they go get it. I have also been allowed to walk out in the yard at Agees a couple times when I was looking for things. I would be leary pulling anything out of a vehicle at D&M since they tend to stack their vehicles.
I haven't been able to find a pick'n'pull yard around here. I usually have to go back to Richmond if I want to pull my own parts as well as pay about half what they want for used parts out here. For example, I went to the one junkyard in Richmond and pulled two rear axle shafts and paid less for both of them than any of the junkyards around here would have charged for one.

god damnit, I hate paying somebody to pull my parts, we only have one of those back home. Bills wants between $45 and $65 for a shft that I can get for $10 at home.
