If you're needing work on a lifted truck, these guys are super knowledgeable on that. In my experience, my regular mechanic didn't want to deal with anything other than stock but J&L had the experience necessary to address issues with my lifted Tacoma.

Great service and great guys to work with. We had some challenges fitting the new suspension, brakes and airbox+snorkel, but it all worked out in the end. The J & L team was always nice, and helpful!

Had a problem with my 2013 JKU temp rising on hill or when I got on it other places told me it wasn't a thermostat problem because it was basically only happening on hills. It was these guys know their stuff I will use these guys in the future. Price was fair and was done quickly.

I've brought two different Jeeps to the guys at J&L within the last year. They are professional, down to earth, with great prices and work hard to get projects done in a quick manner. My most recent visit was picking immediately after picking up a new JL and they set it up proper with rims and tires. My previous trip was getting some front end issues sorted, including getting a new Fox dual stabilizer. Both projects turned out great. One additional thing, they know these vehicles, so where other shops are hunting and trying to figure stuff out they knew right away what were problems. Thats something worth money and time!

The guys at J&L were great! I called them and explained I was visiting in the area and had a wheel bearing possibly going bad. They told me to come right over and they checked it out for me. Very courteous and understanding of my situation. I d recommend them to everyone!

Scheduled for a 1 day installation, took 4. They called and said that I would be needing tie rod ends soon. They also said it was drivable. I Picked up the jeep Saturday, which fell apart and is not drivable. The front end wobbles approximately 5-6 inches on both sides.. this happened on hwy 14 at 60mph. We were able to get it home at 30mph. If they had the front end apart, and knew that the tie rods were that bad, why couldn't they tell me it was unsafe and needed to be replaced before releasing it. I would have been understanding. Now I don't know the extent of damages that incurred by driving it and havingthe rods let loose at 60. . We will be contacting them to figure this out. This not only caused damage to my jeep, but my wife, who was driving it at the time, is now terrified of our new toy. Thank you. I chose j&l over custom lifts in Kenosha for convenience, what a mistake on my part.

Stopped in a few weeks ago and ordered a lift kit for my 2023 Pro4X Frontier. Parts came in and set up my appointment to have them install it. Was told that it would take 4 to 5 hours to complete. I waited in the show room while they worked on my truck. I was pleasantly surprised when the job was completed in about 2 1/2 hours. They said they had the man power so they put 3 guys on my truck and knocked it out. I will say that my experience was very good and if I get a different truck in the future I will not hesitate to come back. The price was very fair. Thanks for everything at J & L Automotive and 4 Wheel Drive Center. I love the look of my truck.

Stopped in to inquire about choices to level my Jeep, Chuck is very thorough, and explained what he wanted to accomplish, but he needed a day or 2 to make some calls to get the best item for my scenario. He called later and explained everything in great detail, I had service performed, my vehicle now looks 100% better, Chuck definitely cares about the work he performs on customers vehicles, not a very common trait these days.

Chuck and James were awesome to work with. They installed a Bully Dog tune, 6" BDS lift, 35" x12.5" Nitto grappler tires on 20" x 10" Fuel Assault rims with Borla Atak exhaust. This truck looks great, sounds great and drives even better. If you need some advice about lifting your truck, give Chuck a call. He is the owner and will treat you right.

First time Jeep owner, here. Bought an '06 TJ and needed new tires and steps installed. Had some shaking action and noises I wasn't sure about, too. Asked around and these guys' reputation is top-notch. Actually had them suggested by our other trusted mechanic. So I gave them a call.ANYWAY, Joe & Chuck have been so honest and straightforward (+ patient) w/ my questions and explaining everything and, in short, my jeep is already driving better.They've told me what is normal w/ Jeeps, what I might consider upgrading while NEVER trying to SELL me on anything.Solid people. Great work. Can't recommend enough.Services: Tires, General repairs

Chuck and his staff are very knowledgeable and they are reasonable.They can find parts that many shops are not willing to spend the time locating.

Great people, knowledgeable, friendly, and as quick as they can be.Edit. I took my jeep there again this time for a blown radiator. The guys came and picked it up for me, and had it done as quickly. These guys are the guys to go to for any off-road/4x4. I highly recommend

It's so nice to have a resource like Chuck at J&L to go to when I need top notch products intalled on my 2016 Chevy 2500HD. Not only do they do a great job on the service, but the knowledge and experiance when selecting what type and brand of products to add my vehicle. I am forever a customer of J&L four Wheel drive, and strongly recomend to anyone I know to go to Chuck when you need advise on what to use on your next application.

Negligent & dangerous. A lug nut FELL OFF my vehicle after having break work done (literally found it at the end of my driveway on returning home), and discovered two additional nuts were hand loose on the same wheel. Two weeks later my transmission is now also shot.... after J&L flushed it. Stunned. I drive my children around in this -until now- well maintained rig.Services: Brakes, Auto maintenance

Had a pretty difficult install of a BDS lift kit on my Tacoma TRD Pro. Chuck, James, and Joe did an excellent job of providing recommendations and getting the kit installed. There were quite a few fabrications they had to do to get it to work, but everything turned out amazing! I appreciate their patience and willingness to do the work. I would highly recommend them!

I thought they would know how to do a 3" lift on my Jeep but I was mistaken! Driver side brake censore line was routed incorrectly so tight it broke. Then they said that they couldn't do the front end alignment because my frame was bent, I wasn't able to turn right or left equally, I just don't know what they had messed up.He suggested not driving over 45 miles per hour.. If at all. I took it to another front end alignment place and it had no issues, It's fine now.

Brought my car in for a brake repair. Ended up replacing the Master cylinder, with a long wait (Longer than a week with an appointment) and no communication about when the part would/had arrived. I ended up calling and the part had been delivered at some point already. Got my car back and had the same issue as before. Brought it back and they replaced the brake booster (twice... first part was warrantied.) All in all it took about three weeks with 10-12 days in the shop for the job to be done right.This is all fine. Backlogs of parts is common right now, communication is hard when you're keeping track of so many things, sometimes the most likely diagnostic isn't the problem, and parts need to be warrantied out on occassion.However, when I got my car back, the air intake had been damaged and my car had a whine when pushing the rpms above 3,000. I was told the cold weather makes parts brittle, and it was damaged prior. The sound did not exist prior to the final visit. A few months later (today) I brought my car to another shop for diagnostics, and the mechanics basically told me point-blank that my air intake was 100% damaged by negligence during the brake booster repair.Service: Brakes

J&L recently replaced the rear-bumper on my Tacoma......good experience and great communication from start to finish. Extremely pleased with the finished product, and will not hesitate to use J&L for future projects. Thanks

Been taking my Wrangler to J&L for over a year now for maintenance and some more serious fix-its. They are always happy to help, fit you in if they can. They honor their appointment times.Their prices are as low as a shop can go and stay in business. They won't fix a thing if it doesn't need fixing, but they are willing to tackle the nastier parts of diagnostics (like electrical issues).They've never tried to steer me towards a solution but give me good information and a recommendation and leave it up to me.Services: Transmission, Electrical repair, Tires, Auto engine diagnostic, Engine repair, Wheel alignment
