SEQHow a build works
Measure twice. Weld once.
- 01
Talk through the trips
Where you drive, what you haul, how often it’s your daily. That sets the lift, the tire and the budget — not a catalog.
- 02
Measure & draw
We measure your truck, sketch the armor and quote the whole build in writing — parts and hours — before anything is cut.
- 03
Fabricate & fit
Cut, welded and powder-coated here, then fitted to your truck — not to a truck like it.
- 04
Align, test, re-torque
Aligned, test-driven on our gravel loop, and every bolt re-checked free after your first 500 miles.
STDThe standard
Built to be used.
- Spec 1
Welded in-house
Bumpers, sliders and skids are cut and welded here by certified welders — with a lifetime warranty on the welds.
- Spec 2
Aligned before it leaves
Every lift leaves with a printed alignment and a corrected speedometer. Never “it’ll settle in.”
- Spec 3
Still your daily
We tune ride and gearing so it still merges, tows and parks — and tell you honestly what a 6-inch lift costs at the pump.
Lifetime warranty on our welds. 24 months / 24,000 miles on parts and labor for everything we install — written on the invoice, honored at this bench.

CREWThe crew
Three people, one bench.
The person who measures your truck welds your bumper and sets up your shocks. We take on a handful of builds at a time, on purpose.
Hank Doyle
Owner · ASE certified, certified welder
Draws the first sketch of every truck himself and still welds most of the bumpers. Has run the Magruder Corridor eleven times, twice on a trailer.
Maria Quintero
Suspension & alignment · ASE certified
Sets up every lift, every shock and every alignment. If your truck pulls, wanders or rides like a hay wagon, she finds out why.
Eli Park
Electrical & overland systems
Dual batteries, lighting, onboard air and fridges, wired with labeled looms and real breakers, so nothing melts three states from home.

From the people driving them.
4.9★★★★★from 410 Google reviews
Report 01 · 2021 Toyota Tacoma · 3.5-inch lift
They talked me out of the 6-inch lift. The 3.5 with 35s does everything I need and still fits in my garage. That’s honesty.
Report 02 · 2020 Jeep Gladiator · front bumper
The bumper they built for my Gladiator fits better than anything I could buy. Two years of Owyhee trails and not a crack in a weld.
Report 03 · 2019 Ford Ranger · overland build
Full overland build, quoted to the dollar and finished a day early. They took it up the gravel loop with me before I paid.
Report 04 · 2022 Ram 2500 · leveling kit
Free re-torque at 500 miles, and they found a loose shock bolt the last shop left on my old truck.

FAQQuestions
Before you build.
Q1Will a lift kit void my truck’s warranty?
Not by itself. The dealer has to show the modification caused the failure. We give you receipts, specs and alignment printouts, so your records stay clean.
Q2Can I bring my own parts?Often, yes. We look them over first and tell you honestly if something won’t fit or won’t last. Our labor warranty covers the install; the maker covers the part.
Q3How much will bigger tires cost me in fuel?Usually one to three miles per gallon going from 31 to 35 inches, more with mud-terrains. We give you a straight estimate for your truck before you decide.
Q4Do I need to re-gear?Up to 33 inches, rarely. At 35, often on smaller engines; at 37, almost always. We look at your gearing, your engine and what you tow.
Q5How long does a build take?Leveling kits and sliders take a day. A stage 2 build is about a week. Full builds are scheduled around parts and fabrication — with dates in writing.
Q6Will it still fit in my garage?We measure your garage door with you before we pick a lift. With a roof rack, a 3.5-inch lift instead of a 6 can be the whole difference.
Q7Do you service what you build?Yes — the free 500-mile re-torque, alignments, shock rebuilds and the everyday maintenance a built truck needs.
