Essentials Only Auto Repair

Customer said a shop just replaced his brakes… I think they forgot a very important part 🤯

This is what it looks like to replace a radiator support in a Hyundai. But, at least it IS replaceable.

Only taking 2 more orders in 2026. #projectrampage

Time for some new turbo boost tube's from Banks for the shop truck. We are experienced and ready to take care off all your aftermarket auto accessories from simple to not so much...

For those people who wonder what it looks like under a rig on the lift.

This kind of B.S. is exactly why we got into this business. We give you an honest assessment of problems, repairs, and solutions.

So apparently this is “dangerous” now. Dealership took one look at this bushing on my 2011 Sienna and immediately went into hostage-negotiation mode. They told me they “can’t legally release the vehicle” unless I sign a waiver saying I’m aware it’s unsafe to drive.

Then they hit me with the real comedy… $1,900 to replace the control arms because “the engine has to come out.”

Yeah, you heard that right… they’re claiming Toyota engineered a minivan where you have to perform HEART SURGERY just to swap a rubber bushing. I told them it’s been like this for 7 years and somehow the van still drives straight as an arrow, but they said I’m “lucky to be alive.”

Dealerships will literally invent a NASA-level repair before admitting something is just worn, not catastrophic.

But sure… let me just authorize an engine removal because the bushing has “personality lines.”

It's come to my attention that our ads placed on the tables at Ruby's have a misprint. The listed phone number is incorrect. Anyone can call 406-500-7266, leave a message, and we will do our best to get back to you asap.

Ya, we can fix that.
