Definitely recommend the 4x4 shop! First time in the door I met Pete. He helped me work through the options to put a leveling kit on and lift my '21 Tacoma while keeping it as stock as possible. We went with the Eibach Stage-1 2" front and a 1" block on the rear. Pete made it easy, got me on the schedule that day...2 weeks later did night drop. Got a call and photo the next day when it was complete... The whole team did a great job and after climbing under it when I got home, the install looked clean! Great experience...I'll go back when I need more 4WD work done! read more

This place is awesome beyond belief! Fred who helped me out is a class act and got me in and out with 1.75inch Mammoth wheel spacers in less than an hour!!! I was so impressed by the staff!!! 100% cool cats and they were busy too! While they were working on my car I looked around inside and saw a Mobnetic Max MagSafe phone holder! I asked how much and it was the same as Amazon! Then I saw a sweater and it was $40 but Joe the owner said $10 off...I said Done! I left there paying $200 for everything where I would have probably paid well over $125 or more elsewhere! Joe was really cool and takes pride in providing high level of customer satisfaction and service. I was impressed. He has earned my business for sure. Selection is nice but Fred said they could get anything. I will take up that offer eventually. So it is nice to be able to go to a place that can get me anything and take care of all my Jeep needs! Seriously, I just received t an incredibly cool, efficient and quality appointment at the 4x4 shop. So if you are looking at getting any 4x4 upgrades, mods, parts etc., head on down to The 4x4 Shop in Livermore, CA! You will not be disappointed! Ask for Joe the owner, Fred or any of the other cool peeps there! You won't be disappointed! read more

The 4X4 Shop - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Livermore, California

Joe, Pete, Fred, and the rest of the team at The 4x4 Shop have taken great care of me every time I've brought my truck in. They communicate clearly, do honest work, and have never tried to nickel and dime me. On top of that, their prices are very reasonable and the quality of their work is excellent. The first job I brought them was replacing the leaf springs on my 2012 F150. The price was fair and the work was done right. Later, when I was preparing to drive across the country for a family relocation, they handled a significant amount of suspension work for me. It was clear they genuinely cared about my family's safety on that trip. They were upfront about what absolutely needed to be replaced, what was worth doing while we were at it, and what would have just been an unnecessary expense. If you need work done on your truck, or you want to customize it, go to The 4x4 Shop in Livermore! read more

If you need work done, look no further than The 4x4 Shop. I was trying to coordinate a surprise for my wife with some new tires and rims, and the staff here made it incredibly easy. They were extremely accommodating with my schedule to make sure the secret was safe, and the installation itself was lightning fast. The entire crew is friendly, professional, and seriously expert level at their craft. Thank you to the whole team for helping me pull this off perfectly! If you have a need for skilled folks, you take it to The 4x4 Shop. No question. read more

The 4X4 Shop - welding and added hitch for recovery and swing arm. - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Livermore, California

The crew at the 4 x 4 shop is top notch. I brought my 93YJ in for a pre-purchased inspection. They identified a few issues and more importantly, fix the issues extremely quickand I was able to enjoy our memorial day weekend with the Jeep. Thanks again guys. read more

They know their stuff! I mainly dealt with Fred. His knowledge and help were incredible. This place is super busy and I can see why, it is the place to go to. They worked on my 2018 Ford F-250. They also installed a hitch for a 5th wheel and air bags for towing. I never once felt "over sold" on any products. Fred listened to what I needed and he and the team exceeded my expectations. People often admire this truck and ask me who did the work. And even though the work is completed, I still feel like I can call these guys for advice. You don't find that these days. read more

I brought my Gladiator in to get it lifted and I ask the salesman to fix the steering, cause it drifts all over the road and it make a clunking sound when turn the wheel back n forth. They gave it back to saying they fixed the steering but When I drove it home it was still drifting all over the road with play in the steering wheel. When I dropped it off I even specifically said whatever it takes to fix the steering please do it! I'm very disappointed! Update! Brought the truck back and Joe was able to take care of all the issues! Thank you much appreciated! I will recommend This for any 4X4 enthusiasts upgrading there vehicles! read more

Joe, Fred and their team were great to work with. They made the process of lowering my truck super simple.

I had a good experience getting the damaged lower control mounts replaced on my TJ Rubicon. The price of the repair was reasonable considering the high quality of fitting and welding that they did. I will recommend this shop to friends and I will return when I need their expertise in the future. read more

I discovered The 4x4 Shop when selecting an authorized installer for my Dirtbox Canopy Camper. Joe, Fred, and Jason, their Dirtbox installer, take pride in their work and truly care about their customers. According to Joe and Fred, it's common for even high quality manufacturers of off-road products to fall short on documentation and written instructions. Even though this leads to a certain amount of confusion and miscommunication, the mechanics here know their stuff, and they get the job done remarkably well. If something isn't quite right, they take care of it. Simple as that. Jason's intelligence, experience, and attention to detail really show when he does an install. I have never, ever dealt with such considerate people in the automotive industry. Totally worth a 1-hour drive each way. read more

My husband and I have historically worked on our own Jeeps but after a recent trip to the Rubicon and not currently having the space or tools to do post-trail repairs, the 4x4 Shop came highly recommended from friends and fellow Jeepers. One of my friends had her Jeep re-geared here and she also had a good experience and her Jeep is driving well. I actually met Joe on the Rubicon trail and he was super chill and I had a great time wheeling with his group. I have a 2002 Jeep Wrangler TJ. After getting home from my trip I realized that on the drive home I blew an axle seal on my rear axle and lost a decent amount of gear oil. Upon further inspection of my Jeep (which you should always check everything before and after a trip regardless of difficulty!) I also realized my adjustable control arms had loosened their jamb nuts. Being unable to do any servicing or adjustments at home, I e-mailed the shop (their current preferred method of communication, their voicemail literally asks to NOT leave a message and e-mail them instead if they can't answer the phone.) I sent the e-mail with a brief description of who I was so they could remember my rig as well as photos of the issues I had. They are currently pretty booked on major projects and while I had mentioned my Jeep Wrangler was not a daily driver and I was in no rush, Joe let me know I could drop it off to get looked at. As a safety of not knowing how much gear oil I had lost and not being able to really check (specific to my set up and lack of space) I opted to have it towed which they were fine with. I had a feeling that since I had already established the issue and let them know that it was getting towed that I personally didn't need to go with the Jeep. However I felt it was more courteous since they were fitting me in to check-in in person and to confirm what I needed looked at and worked on. They do have a drop box for keys at their door. Inside the storefront is a large variety of off-road products from fire extinguishers, to jacks, to spacer lifts, lighting and wheels. Joe was super nice and professional and we went over what the problems were and I requested just an overall check of the Jeep since I will be moving cross country soon and this Jeep is part of that road trip. I was quoted a fair price based on the work requested with understanding that if they found something else damaged that it would be more. Of course as Jeeps go they did find that one of my U-joints in the front axle had blown from the abuse on the trail and they fixed that right up. Turnaround time was really fast which tracks with my specific problems not being massive damage (phew!). I greatly appreciate that Joe was able to fit my small jobs in between the larger probably more expensive projects/builds at the shop. Highly recommend the 4x4 Shop for any Jeep/4x4 needs, big or small! Very friendly and professional with great communication! read more

Got my lift kit installed on my 4Runner with KDSS. Pretty fast turn around time, I was able to pick up my car the same day! I scheduled my appointment thru yelp messenger and they have a very quick response time. Dropped off my car, told them my name and that was it. In n out with no issues. So far I've driven 1,000 miles since the install and everything seems good . read more

The 4X4 Shop - Bilstein 5100's with 1" rear coils - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Livermore, California

I went into this shop because I have a Jeep and I needed a roof rack. I suppose they are set up to service a specific kind of clients and I did not fall into that category. I was basically asked to go do my own research on the internet. I suppose unless I am ready to trick out my Jeep for off-roading, and spend a couple times the value of a new Jeep at this place, I should go pound sand? Ok. Got it. Thanks. I shall just shake the dust off my shoes and never come back. read more

I would give Fred 100 stars if I could. I got my wheels and tires from a place 400 miles away. I walked in to 4x4 shop to ask if they sold lug nut lock sockets. Fred went out of his way to find one that fit, then walked across the parking lot to where my truck was being worked on at a different business. When he found one that fit he handed to to me and wouldn't let me pay. You can't teach this in customer service school. This action is one of a good person. It is such a rarity to find good, kind and honest people these days. Thank you Fred. I will be getting any and all of my truck accessories from the 4x4 shop!!! read more

Wow, I was totally blown away by Joe and the folks at the shop (even the other customers). Such lovely people, so warm and welcoming and extremely knowledgeable. I'm so glad I went to the shop yesterday. They hooked me up with an alignment (super thorough) and did a great job. I'll definitely be going back whenever I need other things done to my Jeep. Thank you! - Jocelyn read more

The 4X4 Shop - Just look how pretty they can make things look! - Auto Parts & Supplies Near Me - Livermore, California

I went here because they are a RSE steps installer and one of the best rated places for 4x4 work in the Bay Area. They are pretty swamped with business so it is hard to get them on the phone and to get an appointment. It was well worth the effort in my opinion. They did a great job installing the steps and I asked them to check some other things while they had it. They found the control arms and some other things were loose and tightened them up. They also took the time to answer my questions and show me what they had done when I was there. The shop is over an hour away from my house but I plan to go back for all my major repairs and replacement work on my 4x4. Next will be ball joints and seat belts. read more

Absolute top notch. They did such a fantastic job answering questions, getting parts in, and getting things installed in such a short time. Really happy with how the truck has turned out. I will come back to them with any 4x4 need so long I'm in Northern California. read more

Joe and team are by far the best 4x4 shop I've found in Northern CA. The shop feels like a family. Joe is the real deal with a true passion for jeeps and anything off road. It's refreshing to talk to someone who really knows their craft. As with any successful/busy shop and from first hand experience their phones get busy so you just have to be patient. Their work is worth the wait! Thank you for taking the time to get everything right on my rig. read more

Joe is very knowledgeable and helpful. I'm so happy that I chose this shop to do the lift on my truck. Joe was patient with me, answered all of my questions and pointed me in the right directions as to which suspension was the right choice for me( key words, he listened to what I wanted to accomplish and did not push his own agenda). As Joe promised, the lift looks great and rides even better. I definitely recommend Joe and the shop and will return for other 4x4 related purchases. read more

This is my second experience with these guys and I'm equally as satisfied! Even though it was only a new set of tires, Joe took the time explain tire options via email and look over my truck when I arrived to make sure my questions were answered. Top notch service speaks for itself! Customer for life here. read more

Superb work. Hands down some of the nicest and most professional individuals I have come across in the off roading industry. A lot of these "custom" shops will yank your chain and wow you with a fancy show room or wall to wall photos of winning 1st place at some pie eating contest. Than have no shame to give you terrible and expensive advice on how to customize your truck. The 4x4 shop is a little corner shop in down town Livermore that has no flash or screams for attention as you drive by. They save all the shock and awe for the work they perform. I was quoted a reasonable price to install a 4" RC lift and tires I provided. They took about 2 days to install and the work clearly showed dedication to the craft. My truck actually looks good I mean really good. It's so bad I always find excuses to go outside and stare it down like some kinda stalker. They stated to bring my truck back after a 1k miles to retorque all the bolts and that they BACK THEIR WORK UP FOR LIFE. Clearly a cut above the rest. Now I will, with out hesitation crawl up those steep grades in the mall parking lot with out fear of something breaking. So if your like me and get one of those wild hairs going up the ol pooper to lift your truck or something bring it here! You will not be sorry. P.S. They give you free stickers! read more

had an appointment scheduled and called Fred the day prior just to see if things were still a go. He didn't return my call, so I called again and again. I finally got through to Joe, and he said he was trying to find the part and that Fred was out of town and unreachable. They scheduled me for the following week. After a few hours of waiting, Fred called me and said the wrong part was delivered and that they would call me back to re-schedule (yet again). That was 2 weeks ago, haven't heard back. They are terrible. Do not bring your vehicle there for any reason read more

The 4X4 Shop continues to impress. I can't say enough good things about The 4X4 Shop and Larry. I had a lift kit installed along with new Fox shocks with Larry at The 4X4 Shop. He's very detail oriented as well as patient and takes the time to communicate all the facets of a project like this. I'm very pleased with the results and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any off-road project you may have. He additionally fit me into their busy schedule and would quickly respond to my phone calls or emails. Definitely planning on using them again in the future for additional work.
