Carolina Offroad Outfitters did an amazing job on my 62. They did a ton of body work, gave it a new paint job, installed a pair of 4plus bumpers, a new radiator, and a really cool decal that's not easy to put on. Everything came out perfect. Amazing that there's absolutely no sign of the 2 quarter-panels they installed. Awesome place, they know what they're doing, super responsive, and they'll make sure you get exactly what you ask for - at a great rate. Definitely my go-to for anything I need to get done!

Unfortunately I took my new to me truck to Carolina off-road outfitters.They had previously serviced the truck for the PO.They were asked to correct the carburetor drive ability concerns. And to make the truck safe to drive. They did nothing for over two weeks. After the PO and I inquired several times they told me to drive it to fix the issues. I left after they had gone over it and within the first mile realized there was no brakes. ZERO. No fluid in the brake master cylinder. I limped the truck home via emergency brake.As far as the carburetor issues I drained some fuel to find it was total varnish. This after the shop said they had checked the fuel and fuel filter.

Read the review below, and amazingly similar to my experience a year ago. Brought in my two-owner 195k mile 89 FJ62 for rear main seal change and new engine gaskets. After six weeks, picked up with new motor problems and rear main seal still leaked. Silicone used with the gaskets as well, good for quick sealing but future early failure. (different thermal expansion rates)After hemming and hawing, owner did cover the cost of new rear main seal install at another shop. Commend for that. As for engine issues, told "it's an old truck, things break." Coincidentally while at their shop? Guess I'll have to give them benefit of the doubt. Was extremely cold last Christmas while sitting in their yard.Really hope these two reviews are exceptions and not the rule. Raleigh needs a good vintage SUV resto shop. Let's hear the good work done here and prove me wrong!

Had a body work project after reaching out to a number of local shops chose to go with Carolina Offroad Outfitters. They got the project done exactly how I had wanted and exceed my expectations. Price and time of project were spot on as well. Will definitely go back for future work.

I ve been getting my FJ62 serviced here for the past year, this is pretty much the place to go if you have a vintage 4X4. I ve had seals, suspension, and the works done by these guys.I haven t seen any other shops in the area take the level of care these guys do with bodywork and I will be getting mine repainted there after baselining the mechanicals.Vintage SUVs are a lifestyle and not everyone gets it like these guys do.

Brought my 18 Silverado here to have a leveling kit installed. Fair price, great turnout, and truck was in and out in about half a day.

The only place in Raleigh I'd trust my 4x4 work too.

Beats the local competition hands down with responsiveness and cost. Great work quality too!
