This shop is a joke. I came in with a brand new DJM 5/7 drop 7" rear flip kit and 3" front djm spindles plus 2" lowering springs. My truck already had a 3/4 drop belltech installed 20 years ago. So, they lower my truck without telling me they are going to re-use the 20 year old belltech drop spindles. I brought all new DJM parts to instal and instead of using my new drop spindles they use my old ones without asking if it is allright. Then I have them instal rear helper bags which I purchased online from air ride technologies and they instal different bags without telling me or calling me to let me know. Wtf. So in the end it takes them 6 weeks to finish my truck. My truck has been garaged since brand new and is like new in/out minus a few paint blemishes on the driver bed. I go to pick it up and it has been parked under a tree with a lot of sap the entire time it was there. It is coated with sap, the trim is now all dried out on the roll up windows between the outer door and glass. The mirrors have marks all over and the paint needs a full clay bar/cut and buff. I asked them why they didn't detail the outside before me picking it up and they were like really. Come on what's the big deal. I'm sorry but do you know where to find a white 1997 454 vortech extra cab dually with grey interior that is close to like new condition anywhere??? I don't think you will. I was building this as a show truck and now I have soooo much more to put into it because they treated my truck like a 200k mile truck in primer.

He came out the next day to look at our vehicle right where it was parked, which was in front of our house. After his initial diagnosis, we discussed his plan to fix the oil leak and the total cost. He said he never exceeds the total cost quoted, but only charges for time spent and materials, so the total can be less than the quote. He then purchased the parts and installed them. He kept me informed and was easy to talk to. The repair was completed successfully, on time, on budget and not a drop of oil was spilled on the street. He even checked back a week later to make sure I was a satisfied customer and I was! I will definitely call Mike the next time I have an automobile issue.

I needed fast service and asked them to make an exception for me on timeframe. Of course, I told them I understood if they couldn't get to it sooner than later. Mike made the exception for me and gave exceptional service too. Instead of giving that knee-jerk response so many people do of a deep sigh and a long pause to work it out in their head, Mike double checked, made it happen, and didn't make me feel like I owed him one for doing me a favor. I tried to leave him some extra cash for being so generous and he said no way and that he was happy to help. I left the $20 for him anyway on my way out because good people with great attitudes should be rewarded for going above and beyond.
