This shop does excellent work. Barry was very knowledgeable and very professional. He takes pride in his work. Its hard to find a shop you can trust. They have my trust. Barry put in a new LSD and changed the rear end gears for an OBS F150. He did an excellent job. A+++

Over the course of the past 10 years, Ive must have driven by this shop well over 1000 times. Having owned many trucks and Jeeps, gearing is always such an important aspect of the final drive of your vehicle and not many people pay attention to this. Towing trailers is quite possibly the most stress you can place on a vehicles components especially the rear axle, having the right gears makes ALL the difference. Barry and his crew are by far the BEST at what they do. My current truck is a 2014 Ram 1500 and I originally had 3.55 gear ratio and it was pulling my trailers and going up hill just fine, but I didnt want to stress the rear end any more than I needed too as I was towing between 5-7000lbs so going to a 4.10 ratio was the right ticket. I had many questions and Barry was always ready to assist and even after the install was extremely patient and courteous. He is extremely knowledgeable and its comforting knowing that a local business performs this type of work, doing it right the first time. :) Thank you Barry and crew, you have a customer for a lifetime.

I brought in a rearend for my 69 Camaro thinking it was an easy repair. Barry discovered an issue that i never would have figured out. We has to order some custom parts and Barry saw to it that it was put together properly. Very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. I cant say enough how happy i am. I will be back.

Just had a great experience with Barry at The Rear End Shop! Had them order and install 5.29 gears in my Toyota Tundra. Barry was very friendly and thorough in explaining the whole process and my truck was done in a timely manner. Very happy with the results my truck drives amazing! Highly recommend Barry and his crew. We will be bringing our 4runner to them as well.

Berry, helped keep my old Toyota truck on the road. After 387k on the clock, my rear differential has finally had enough. From the initial phone call, Berry gave me the time of day to listen to my truck issue, and provided a clear estimate, he is no nonsense, yet gives good customer service. In my case, my differential only needed a new seal and bearings. I found the price for work, competitive, and the bonus is Berry stand behind his work with a outstanding warranty.

Had issues with 2 different trucks this year and Rear End Shop took great care of us both times. Last week especially, we needed our truck back in a couple days so my son could have it at college in SoCal and Barry got it done quickly it drove great all the way down to Riverside. He was very quick to respond to questions, called promptly about what needed to be done, and super easy to work with. Im not sure what it would have cost at other shops, but with something as important as this, its worth the price to have a legit shop fix it right and on time. Highest marks for them for service, honesty, communication and quality work----what more would you want from a car shop these days?

This shop regeared my Jeep Wrangler (-after it was lifted somewhere else). Also replaced the stock drive shaft with an aftermarket drive shaft, and installed Trutrac differentials. Paid exactly what was quoted initially. Ive driven my Jeep off road all the way to Baja since with no issues; very happy with their work.

I did the regear on my Tacoma here with Barry, the owner. His team works professionally and get the job done well. Cost is very competitive (did research and cost comparisons). For those who want to get the regear/differential work done and dont want to get their hands dirty, this is the shop for the job. Plus, they have great warranty (3 years) to set you in peace of mind. A few of my friends are on their way in for the regear.

I took my truck in with a growling/whining noise from the rear end. It had been looked at by another shop who said they thought it was from the rear differential. They said they had checked the bearings and they were OK. Based on this I got a rebuild differential---which did nothing to the sound. I took it to another shop who said that it was the right rear wheel bearing. When this was replaced the noise resolved. So far not so good for the Rear End Shop.When I called to ask about this I was immediately offered an apology and a FULL REFUND. The owner apologized as he had worked with the shop who did the initial diagnostics and trusted them. He said Lesson learned I need to do my own diagnostics every time.Check arrived today.I would certainly use this shop again for their competence and honesty.
