Predator 4 Wheel Drive

Just wanted to give their customer service a shout out. They were not able to get me in due to my schedule but were able to recommend another local shop who can get me in today to at least look at it. I appreciated the willingness to service the customer even if i didnt end up getting the work done there.

I have a 2021 Rubicon and these guys helped me with a winch problem (it turned out that I had not attached a dedicated ground - they fixed it for a minimal cost). I live in the mountains a good 3 hours from their shop and so it is bit of a commitment to get work done there. But they treated me right with the winch problem, so when it came time to do a 2-3" lift on the same vehicle I decided to have them do it for me. Because of the distance, I dropped it at the shop when they opened and then stayed in Colorado Springs until they had it done. They walked me through the options, and once those decisions were made and they got to work on it right away. They completing it by mid-afternoon and got me on my way.

I'm writing this several months later mainly because I didn't get around to it earlier, but I also wanted to wait until I could try it out on the trails as well as the highway. In short, I am really pleased with the lift - the vehicle handles well on the highway, and with the move to 35" tires I've probably gained something like 3-4" in the height of the frame. I took it on some red trails in the Moab area (Top of the World, Dome Plateau, others) - the vehicle performed perfectly. No rubbing even at extreme turning angles, power seemed fine, extra clearance was wonderful. The gas mileage, which wasn't great to begin with, is somewhat worse, but that's to be expected. I think the guys did a great job with the lift.

One thing I had to work out was that when I first got the vehicle out on the freeway various warning lights came on and the gear indicator disappeared (it's a manual transmission). The shop had adjusted the speedometer as part of the work, but it turns out that the gear indicator is tied to some complicated computation that has to effectively be reset when you change tire size. I immediately called Craig at the shop and although he didn't know anything about it he promised to investigate. It wasn't a safety thing so I just drove it home and later did my own research, eventually finding a Chrysler document that described how to fix the problem. Although Craig did not find any information on how to fix the issue, he nevertheless called me back after a few days to ask about it - I think most shops wouldn't have made that call. As it happens I was able to execute the correction procedure and the problem was solved. No big deal, just appreciated that they followed up.

Bottom line - they did good work on both the lift and the winch, and they treated me well. Would definitely recommend this shop for work on your 4x4.

The staff here really helped us fix a front-end wobble in our 2012 Wrangler after unsuccessful attempts at another shop. We brought it to them asking for diagnosis and repair. They gave it back to us completely repaired with a good explanation of the issues. Highly recommend this shop to other Jeep owners!

I recently had an aftermarket bumper installed. They did a real solid job I was impressed on the work they did it was a bit expensive but you get what you pay for. I definitely would recommend this establishment.
