Went to them and they replaced my transmission on my 91 mustang. Price was decent, but when I drove home after repairs my fan was hitting the radiator shroud so it caused it to fail. Had to replace the fan clutch and fan. Dude gave me some money back but didn't give me full price for the parts I purchased to replace the damaged ones. I should have checked engine bay before leaving the shop. Also en employee sat in the car with something sharp in there back pocket at least twice that caused a rip in my seat. I had just purchased the car so I wasn't sure where the the rips came from until I started to look at before and after pictures of the car before the transmission was replaced. Dude probably wouldn't have owned up to it and maybe would have tried punking me and not cover the charges. After him not wanting to pay for my fan clutch and fan I didn't want to deal with it anymore especially having to drive an two hours back and forth to the shop.

Super solid dude — polite, respectful, and does great work for a fair price. He rebuilt my diff after a main bearing went out. Dropped it off on a Wednesday and it was done in about three business days. No issues at all since. Plus he gives a 1‑year warranty, can’t beat that.

Would rate 0 stars if I could. I had brought my g56 in for an input shaft replacement. Then had to bring it back because it was leaking (it didn’t leak before). When they had it again I had them inspect the transfer case and rebuild that. Well according to them, splines that are clearly worn out and have been for some time are ok to run. (It’s absolutely not especially when the entire unit was suppose to be rebuilt.) and because the splines mesh with the output shaft in the trans, they were also completely worn out. They want to sit here and tell me it’s because of my clutch and high horsepower but it’s funny because they seem to forget they installed a brand new input shaft that to no surprise, still looks brand new. The only reason I know about the splines being worn is because I had to take it back apart my self for reasons that had nothing to do with the work done but that’s when I noticed it wasn’t right. They also didn’t even re shim the new input shaft or bearing and if they did, it was not done correctly. And instead of owning up to their mistake and getting my parts replaced I’m being told to kick rocks. Would not recommend to anyone unless you want a hack job and a headac

I do a lot of Offroading and when my transmission went out, I asked around and they all highly recommended this shop. I have a 95 Wrangler with a five speed and I use it for rock crawling. So I toke the transmission and transfer case to him expected the worst. Was presently surprised of the estimateI was very reasonable I was kind of shocked was expecting a whole lot more. I beat the snot out of this. He’s always been very fair with me. I will always refer all my friends and family to him!! Thank you Joe!!

Thank you papajoe! Took my Scion tc for my clutch and transmission repair I found them randomly and I'm sure glad I did! This was a couple months back and my cars been running like new ever since! Great price and got it done fast, 1 year warranty is my favorite part. 😁 Also random side note my passenger door never used to lock automatically when I got it back it does now...lol thanks so much!
