New Era
Thunder Racing
Bo White (not sure if he does it anymore)
There are others, just check the sponsor list on the right -->

Parts for Sale section normally has some ported TBs laying around for cheap.

Or you can just man up and do it yourself. It really isn't that hard and it's harder to mess up than people think, just stick to the write-ups.

Fyi, you might not get your exact one back. Often you hand in your TB as a core.

do it yourself, it's easy. I am no pro and it took me about 2 hours from start to finish.
