These specialized kits are a modification to increase the distance between your vehicle and the road, whether you’re doing it for aesthetics or off-roading. A lift kit raises the body of the vehicle to increase the separation of a vehicle’s body and axel. This modification is most common in trucks and SUVs. What to check before lifting your vehicle: • State laws and regulations. • Garage height. • Insurance policies. • Vehicle warranties. Our technicians have the skills, tools, and equipment to professionally install the modification, which saves you time. Contact us today for more information and kit options!

When it comes to the harsh winter season, the type of tires you have on your vehicle is important, especially where you drive. Winter tires are specifically engineered to have the best traction in the cold and are branded with a mountain accompanied by a snowflake. This symbol means the tire complies with severe snow standards. There are some all-weather tires that also are branded with the mountain and snowflake tamp as well. Why buy winter tires: • Prolonged life between summer and winter tires. • Better snow handling. • Incredible performance in the cold. Our tire professionals can help you find the tires that fit your needs and budget, whether you’re looking for designated summer and winter tire combos or an all-season tire. Contact us today!

The drivetrain is a component that delivers power to your vehicle, transferring energy to the wheels while the differential allows wheels on the same axel to spin at different speeds. Other components of the drivetrain are the transmission, CV joint, U-join, differential, driveshaft, and axel shafts. There are four types of drivetrains, front-wheel drive (FWD), rear-wheel drive (RWD), all-wheel drive (AWD), and four-wheel drive (4WD). Signs you need drivetrain service: • Shifting problems. • Check engine light. • Vibrations. • Unusual noises. • Fluid leaks. We have the skills and equipment to diagnose and fix the problem when it comes to a large system like the drivetrain. Whether you need replacements, repairs, or diagnostics — for quality and reliable service, call us today!

All-wheel drive vehicles are also known as 4x4s and four-wheel drive vehicles. These vehicles require a specific system, especially when used for off-roading and towing. The four-wheel drive system operates every day and will need maintenance after time. Technicians will inspect components like the locking hubs, axels, differentials, and the transfer case for leaks and wear to ensure your vehicle is safe and at optimum efficiency. Signs you need four-wheel drive service: • Vehicle cannot fluctuate between or stuck in drive modes. • Whistling axel. • Low fluid levels in the differential. • Illuminated dashboard lights. Our team of technicians has the skills and equipment to diagnose and service your four-wheel drive system, whether you need to replace or service the axel, differentials, or transfer case.

The cooling system, often confused with the A/C unit, is the mechanism that cools your engine, keeping it functional. Your cooling system consists of the radiator, water pump, hoses, thermostat, cooling fan, and of course cooling fluids like the antifreeze/coolant. If this system is failing, the heat your engine takes in will become overwhelming, resulting in engine failure. The signs your cooling system needs service are: • Coolant/antifreeze leaks. • Excessive white smoke expelling from your exhaust. • Vehicle overheating. • Dashboard temperature gauge is redlining. • Low coolant levels. Our technicians have the tools and equipment to diagnose and fix your cooling system problems, whether it’s a leak, a fan, a hose, or a water pump issue. Contact us today!

Your dashboard is the way your vehicle communicates with you, from informing you that needing more windshield wiper fluid to low fuel; however, some lights may not be as straightforward as the others. Your check engine light, also known as the service light, tells you when something may be or is wrong with your vehicle. If this light is flashing, immediate attention is needed. The signs you need diagnostics are: • Service light continuously stays on. • Service light is flashing. • Abnormal vehicle sounds when the service light is on. Our technicians can perform a full diagnosis of your service light and come up with a plan to have the issue taken care of and the code reset and removed. For a complete service light diagnostic solution, contact us today!

The serpentine is a long belt that mobilizes and delivers power to components in the engine like the alternator, water pump, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and air pump. These belts on average can last between 50,000–100,000 miles but can depend on the vehicle, conditions, and the amount you drive. Having this belt inspected during maintenance check-ups can prevent more serious problems. Signs your serpentine belt needs replacing: • Strained or tight steering. • The physical belt is cracked. • Vehicle overheating. • High pitch squealing sounds from the engine. • Air conditioning is not working. Our technicians have the skills and tools to replace and secure your new serpentine belt and make sure further damage was not done. Contact us today!

The suspension is a large system that singlehandedly keeps your vehicle ride comfortable. This system is made up of springs, shock absorbers, tires, and even tire air, all of which contribute to the suspension system. This system ensures a smooth ride by absorbing the impacts from bumps in the road. A damaged suspension can lead to the loss of control over your vehicle. Signs you need suspension service: • Bumpy and uncomfortable ride. • Uneven tire treads. • Uneven vehicle body. • Unstable vehicle body. • Uneven steering. Our technicians can diagnose what part of the suspension system needs attending to, whether it’s the shocks and struts, tires, or if the wheels are out of alignment.
