I dont write reviews much, but I had to do this one for the sake of other potential customers of Unique Offroad.
I have a '91 Ford Bronco that I have been slowly restoring at home, at some point a few months back, I decided to go with a 6" lift. Bought the most complete and expensive lift kit and my friend that also knows Unique Offroad recommended me to call them and check them out. Oscar told me he knew everything about the '91 Broncos and we set up an appointment. Said that it would be done in 2 days, I didn't believe it, but thought they knew what they were doing. A week later, most of the parts were on the truck and there were a few issues they had to iron out, like the bad front brake calipers...I won't put blame on them for that, however there was no communication whatsoever on what calipers I would like to replace the old parts with. He ended up buying cheap crap just to get the truck out the shop, even tho I would have loved to upgrade to something MUCH better.
Anyways, the day came when I went to pick up my truck after Oscar told me that everything was done. Upon pick up he told me that the rear vibrates, but didn't know why...weird and suspicious but ok, I figured the angle of the pinion or the driveshaft was at a weird angle, thought I'd figure it out and bring it back. We'll, figured out the shaking at 25mph was from rear pinion angle due to the factory shims being missing after they removed them and did not put them back. Obviously didn't know what they were doing, looking further at the suspension, noticed bushings were twisted or pressed over bolts, washers missing and bushings sliding off, etc. Oscar told me they installed camber bolts and did an alignment, that was a lie after I asked him about it again. I paid top dollar for mediocre work, I took the truck back for factory shims to be installed to correct the pinion angle, torque down hardware again, place alignment bolts and do alignment...did 2 of 4 things, came up with an excuse why they didn't put the alignment bolts in or did an alignment.
Also, they don't seem to care much about personal property, left my truck over the weekend there and didn't even lock it up, driver side door was unlocked, came up with an excuse for that, saying my lock had issues, when in facts, it does not. Also, they put Unique Offroad stickers on my rear windows without asking me for permission, and I'm not sure why they would advertise such low quality of work like they are proud of it, I would have been personally embarrassed...and I worked for vintage motorcycle and classic car restoration shops, dont have too much knowledge in offroad and place big enough to work on a large vehicle like this. So seeing the quality of work of this shop is just unbelievable. Usually, when people bring their cars in with problems, they leave with a car without problems...it is not the case with this shop...
I would highly recommend against coming here, unless you know it is an easy task or repair, otherwise look else where for a more knowledgeable approach or solution to your Offroad needs. Last thing you need is to be on the trail or in the sand some hundreds of miles away with questionable work...
Ps: I go to classic car shows, meets, etc...not a good look for advertising this kind of work, especially locally in H.B. where all other shops and locals see this.
Also funny how the reviews are not consistent, seems like they are being edited read more
