Custom Exhaust. If you are thinking of customizing your favorite vehicle, call us about the importance of a custom exhaust system. We use Patented Flowmaster Technology. Click the logo below for more information about Flowmaster.

Mufflers and Exhaust System. Get rid of that rattle or stink! Leaky exhaust systems are dangerous and annoying! We've got a LIFETIME WARRANTY for certain mufflers, and our prices can't be beat, so drive on in and we'll slap a new one on there in no time flat!

Brake Service. Don't let your brakes wear into the drum! This will triple your expense at repair. Best let us check those brakes just to be sure.

CV Joints. A CV axle is made up of 2 CV joints. The axle transmits torque from the engine and transmission to drive the vehicle's wheels. A common cause of CV joint failure is cracks in the CV boot. When the boot is cracked, it allows dirt and grit to mix with the grease and wear down the parts of the joint. A clicking noise heard when turning is the most common symptom of CV joint problems. The boots should be replaced as soon as cracking is visible in their rubber folds. Don't open the boot to inspect the joint! The boots are airtight, and if opened, will need servicing.

Struts and Shocks. These are two serviceable components of the suspension system. Most front-wheel drive vehicles have some sort of strut suspension system. The strut is a special type of shock absorber, but, as a part of the structural suspension, can affect things like wheel alignment, vehicle control and suspension wear. Shocks are attached to the vehicle frame near each wheel (most cars). If your vehicle is giving you a bumpy or floating ride, best stop by so we can check it out.

Tires. Tires wear out before their time because of bad alignment and improper air pressure. When you buy a new set from us, come back every 5,000 miles for a free rotation and pressure check. We'll also make sure your alignment is proper.

Alignment. Alignment is making sure the wheels are running parallel to one another, and that the tires meet the road at the proper angle. It is done by adjusting the angles between the suspension and steering parts, the wheels, and the vehicle frame. Everyday driving with the shocks and bumps associated with it can cause the tire angles to get knocked out of line. When this happens, it can cause the vehicle to handle badly or the tires to wear unevenly.

Oil Changes. Every 3,000 miles. Nothing extends the life of an engine like regular oil changes. CLICK HERE for our on-line coupon for a great oil change deal!
