See all

A year later and I've had more problems than I could have imagined. Countless mechanics looking over the work and scratching theirs heads at the mess these guys call "quality" Even after leaving the shop front end suspension rattling brought back to be in their care for another 4 days to hear "one of our junior guys improperly installed a component. Was told the alignment and camber was "good enough" to not cause issues. I've now replaced 2 wheel hubs and 1 year old brand new tires in under a year and half. If you're considering a lift / suspension save yourself the trouble and take it to Sarah's bagels or sports clips for better results than this outfit. read more

I had Buck's do some work on my old Land Cruiser that needed maintenance. The drivetrain is smoother now than it has been in years.

Bucks 4x4 staff were great scheduling repairs for my Wrangler. Service department fixed things faster then promised. overall they did a great job. read more

I have had the best experience with Bucks 4x4 in gettin my truck ready for overland camping and my jeep ready for rock crawling. They are quick to get your vehicle upgraded for you as well as very knowledgeable about the products they are selling. Thank you Ms. Buck and Jeff for your services. read more

I take back a review I made earlier. These guys are legitimate and provided great assistance with a BDS warranty issue I had. Thank you so much and will be back. read more

Great service for my lift and air bag install on my Ram 3500. Looks and performs as it should 2 years later.

With Bucks, It's personal!! Buck's is family owned and this means they answer to you, the customer. I have had a great experience in custom installs and product support. In addition to being locally owned, they support local off-road events and clubs. This pride in the community keeps the off-road adventures happening and promotes land use protections for the next generation. read more

This has to be the worst 4x4 shop in Idaho. What a sh!t show. I took my truck in for some essential work: a front and rear suspension upgrade, an internal airbag replacement. I noticed a spill stain from my gas tank when I picked up my vehicle. It was like somebody had siphoned gas, spilled it, and later, shop dust attached to the gasoline spill. I didn't think much of it at first, but after reading other reviews, I wouldn't doubt somebody siphoned gas out of my truck. Next, I noticed the truck's rear end was higher than expected. After further investigation, I find out that the tech installed the wrong front strut spacer and the truck would have to return to the shop again to install a larger spacer. Jeff, the owner, never apologized for this. I work out of my truck, and it costs me money not to have it. Then I discovered that a second airbag needed to be replaced since it was also bad. I figured this out independently since no pressure test was performed when the tech installed the new airbag. Jeff ordered another airbag, and we scheduled for my truck to be brought back in. Upon picking up my vehicle the second time, I saw the bill and noticed I'd been charged for unauthorized work. Some bolts were loose and needed to be replaced. I was charged $60 (not including labor) for four bolts and nuts that cost a few dollars. Then, I found out that only three bolts were replaced. The total cost of labor was $290. That's two hours for three bolts and one airbag, which is at least 45 mins over. When I brought up to Jeff that I didn't authorize any work outside of the airbag, that only three bolts were replaced, and $15 per nut and bolt was too much, and that I was offended that he never apologized for taking up my time, he starts shouting at me, telling me to take my keys and get the F*** out of his shop. I kept my composure and told him I would want to at least pay for the airbag cost. He says OK, pay for the airbag and get the f*** out. I told him not to talk to me like that. To which he responded f*** you. At this point, I take my keys, and they leave. Later that day, after calling Airlift, I found out that the airbags are not intended to be used for trucks with lifts since the airbag is not long enough to run the length of the extended coil spring; thereby, it cannot correctly keep the truck level. Then, I noticed one of the airbag spacers that was supposed to be reinstalled with the new airbag had not been installed. So, even if the airbags did work under load, my rear end would be uneven since it was missing a spacer. Jeff is unethical and does not care about customers or the quality of his work product. I do not recommend that anyone shop or patronize Bucks 4 x 4. If you do, you do so at your own risk. Just look at the other negative reviews, especially the one where a young lady accuses Jeff of stealing parts from her Jeep read more

I started dealing with Jeff at bucks about a year ago. With a lot of ? He always. Had a minute to talk. I finally ordered a lift for my 89 f250. Which I choose to install my self. after I stall truck still drove a little weird. So I ordered new wheels. Which Jeff also helped me pick out. He installed them today. 37 inch Mickey Thompson If you have ever felt with a lifted truck. They are difficult to align and make drive nice with all these modifications. I want to say. My new truck. Drive awesome. No wobble doesn't drift. And is quiet. Thanks to all the guys at bucks. I will be keeping this truck for a while. read more

Good people, but the work is sloppy. Lug nuts not tightened, steering wheel not adjusted after alignment, installation not completed satisfactorily. Always have to return for adjustments at least once. read more

Is Bucks 4X4 trying to go out of business?? Owner, Jeff Buck just lost my business and damaged their reputation further today! Short version of my experience. They schedule me for new shocks install today and of course I had to wait a week for the appointment which is expected. I drop off my Jeep and pay the $30 Uber ride back home. Within 30 min of being home I get a call saying the owner, Jeff Buck just came in and replaced my appointment with someone else and I was told to come back and pick up my Jeep!!! How unprofessional and messed up is that??? So another $30 trip with Uber to pick it up with no apology or explanation. The guys at the counter said they were very surprised because the schedule was wide open today for my vehicle but the "Owner" just over-road the schedule and bumped my spot with someone else!!!! They were shocked as much as I was! The Owner's pet project wasn't even on the guys schedule! SO unprofessional and showed ZERO concern for his customers major inconvenience or staff who were frustrated that they had to call me with the embarrassing news. I will NEVER buy a part or schedule any work with Bucks again. In my checking around I have since learned that Bucks doesn't have a good reputation. All I know is this is exactly how you run a business into the ground. Running good customers off. Maybe Mr. Buck doesn't care about customer service any more. Well, then maybe we all shouldn't care to do business with Buck's 4x4 any more. I just removed the license plate frame that had Buck's name on it. I certainly won't be advertising for them anymore that is for darn sure! read more

Have you ever been unwelcome to the point you you considered saying "is your conversation about what you're getting for lunch more important than the person wanting to give your business money?" After maybe six or seven minutes I was so incredulous that I didn't even bother. Anyone have recommendations for an alternative? read more

We took our Ford Ranger to Bucks to have a new high end bed cover installed. They did not install properly and it is not functioning and we are disputing the payment. We also had upgrade suspension installed. Some issues with that as well. We were told they were great but not our experience in the first week since installed without resolution. read more

I visited this shop to get a quote for my Hellcat Jeep. I was very interested in what they had to offer. Come to find out, I contracted COVID due to none of their staff wearing masks. read more

They've made it very clear that they don't care about getting my business. They demean and belittle people like me continuously and only show respect to a small niche clientele. read more

I've gad very bad Experience with them. Brought my jeep for four wheel alignment, when i left it was pulling really bad to the right, got rescheduled for realighment, When I came back they checked my alignment again and told me that the first time they just did my front wheels and now they check the rear wheels and the rear is off. Paid for four wheel alignment, they wanted me to pay again for realighmrnt, went to a different place. Very disappointed I really thought that they know what they're doing. read more

I ordered a product online from Bucks 4x4 because I wanted to support a small business rather than feed the Amazon machine. I'll think twice next time, and here's why: Nov. 26th (Tuesday night) - I placed my order and received the immediate email receipt. Nov. 27th - Dec. 5th: - I received nothing else for over a week - 28th was Thanksgiving, so that's a freebie. Dec. 6th (Friday morning) - I contacted Bucks 4x4 asking for a status and a tracking number. - Brandon Curtiss, the General Manager responded same-day saying they'd check as soon as they were in the office on Friday morning. - I never heard back that Friday, as they indicated. (LIE 1) Dec. 8th (Sunday morning) - I emailed Brandon again on the asking for a status and tracking number again. - To my surprise, Brandon did respond again same-day stating they were busy with their 'toys for tots' event and couldn't respond to me [on Friday]. - According to their Facebook posts (six posts), the toys for tots event was held on the 7th of Dec. (Saturday), so they had all day Friday to contact me, but failed to do so. A lie covered up using a good-cause event as the excuse. (LIE 2) - Brandon also said that my package shipped from their warehouse and would get me a tracking number on the 9th of Dec. (Monday). (LIE 3...more on this later) - I received an auto-generated email from Bucks 4x4 asking me to review them on Google! Really!? Dec. 9th (Monday) and 10th (Tuesday) - I received nothing from Brandon or anyone else at Bucks 4x4 (LIE 4) Dec. 11th (Wednesday) - Brandon emailed me back stating my order should be out that day for delivery. - I still never received a tracking number. - I registered with UPS and found my own tracking number, and found the 'Shipped-on' date was 12/09/2019. Brandon implied on Sunday that my packages had already shipped on or before Sunday, but that was not true. So if my package actually comes in this week, it will have taken 2.5 - 3 weeks to get something from them that would have taken Amazon 2 days without the lies and poor customer service from Bucks 4x4. I know some small businesses and 'mom 'n' pop' shops don't partake in shenanigans like this, but when one company does this, it really makes me not want to support the others and just go to Amazon directly. Maybe it's bad timing, maybe it was in the middle of the holiday season, and a toy drive, but I think the facts speak for themselves. You decide. read more

Brought our Wrangler in for an auxiliary brake for towing behind our motorhome. I should have backed out as soon as they had no clue what I wanted. I scheduled my jeep in for install. Pre-paid fir most of it, and then when I cam back for them to install a final piece on my motorhome, they stated that since they had never done one, it took them longer than expected and I had to pay for extra labor. What?? Since I couldn't have the job completed without the extra $500 in labor, I went ahead and paid it. This was on Saturday. When I brought my motorhome in on Monday for a final hookup, the system didn't work. Ended up spending the night on a nearby parking lot. Tuesday came . . . they couldn't get it to work. Spent the night in a nearby hotel. Wednesday came and I was told they wouldn't spend any more time on it even though it didn't work. The tech finally called the manufacturer of the brake and they stated that it was not compatible with the OEM harness Bucks had charged me a total of $255 for. So they removed the harness and wired it up using a simple four wire system with a four pin connector. Guess what....IT DIDN"T work! So I was told there was nothing else they could do. I called the brake manufacturer and they walked me through how to finish hooking up the system and making the adjustments to the brake so I would not encounter devastating results on the highway. It took the rest of the day on Wednesday for ME to finish the work. I tried to get bucks to reimburse me for the harness they charged me for but couldn't use and for the added night in a hotel we had to pay for, but they kept ignoring my calls. I finally complained with the BBB and they flat denied everything and that the Jeep was road worthy when they were done and the OEM harness was installed properly. NOT THE CASE! Lies, all lies! I ended up spending more on the braking system that was never completed than I would have spent at Camping World of all places! Thieves and liars. Every one of them. Look at the photo I posted. Does that look like a Mopar OEM Towing connector harness to you? read more

Mark is really really kind but we've been in this store 4 times this week only to be ignored by Brandon. Would have spent thousands on the wheels and tires but got tired of being ignored. Ask for Mark if you do business with them. read more

They were great & very professional. It was nice finding a place that CARES about the COMMUNITY, especially those with breathing issues. It was nice to not have to wear a face covering & be able to BREATHE! Anyone who says they contracted Covid is a LIAR! Business would have been shut down if that were true. I will be sending ALL of my friends & family in the area there! read more

Avoid these guys like the plague. We spent a pretty penny at this shop, and continue to regret ever letting them touch the truck. Not only did the work they performed take far longer than quoted, but they ended up charging more than we were quoted by thousands. They failed to follow directions, and now we are having to pay another shop to fix all of the issues because we don't trust Bucks. read more

i like it there. Jeff,the manager, is a very respectable guy. I do think they need help in the store. should have people taking pics & videos of their vehicles after working on them so ppl can see the action. Is the website working yet cuz that will help a whole lot. read more

Posers. I guess if you want to spend a few grand on bling, they will take care of you. But I have a 13 y/o Jeep GC that has a failed hydraulic cooling fan. I found the replacement clutch fan, but would like for a professional to swap out the power steering pump to a model that doesn't have the tap-out. They refuse. Fear of lawyers, for doing exactly what I ask for. What do you call it when someone refuses to do a sensible thing ($500 repair vs. $2,000 repair) for unreasonable fear? Cowardice? Greedy? If they are afraid to do a clutch or electric fan conversion on a Jeep, then they need to change the name to "Bucks Bumper and Foglight installer". Reading the other reviews, I cannot help but think they project their own poor ethics on their customers. read more

took it there cause employee told me was best in town and new to the area after hitting a deer and boulder over holidays.They had it for over a week tried to get what was wrong and they gave me a list of stuff not cosr effective to repair and then said they had an employee would like to buy for parts i was told it wad as is and I said no because i had just purchased a brand new hard top in December and i refused to include it and when they said ok without the hard top i came clean out rig and they asked to get the too after the could get it covered i said yes i once again tried and tried to get a hold of them to get my hard top back for 3 weeks and when I finally Got Will on phone he claimed top was gone the next day claiming that I came back in middle of the night and took and dodged my calls for weeks. Scott the manager when i told him i was trying to get a hold of Will and then asked if they had cameras at shop that Will said my hardtop was stolen from their shop. Scott stopped responding to my requests and Both now ignore me. They both knew that I was selling it to pay balance on my new rig. They took advantage of me more about being new to the area and played i dont want you as lady to get taken advantage of..$2000.00 STOLEN FROM ME DONT TAKE ANYTHING TO THESE PEOPLE read more

Beware of these guys. Horrible customer service skills and will waste your time. I was skeptical about doing business with these guys after reading similar reviews however I decided to give these guys a try anyways. I was coming to town on limited time frame and had discussed the issue with my truck and ordered parts a month in advance. It turned out that they cancelled my original parts order and were held my truck for 2 weeks without actually doing anything services. With this type of work ethic I don't know how they're still in business. read more
