Nice classic muscle car.
We see a lot of nice custom rides at Axle and Wheel but I have to admit I have a soft spot for a clean stock restoration. This classic Chevy is in better than new condition. It has fresh paint and a new crate engine. Our mission was to get the suspension working in better than new condition as well. At Axle and Wheel we have a knack for getting those vintage rides to behave as they should. Just be careful, the stock 4 wheel drum brakes on this baby were not designed to stop a 400 plus hp stroker motor!

Attack of the Giant Rims!
I get phone calls all the time asking if I can do an alignment on 26 or 28 inch rims. At Axle and Wheel we have the most up to date equipment to handle the current trends in the automotive aftermarket. It can be challenging to get a heavily modified car or truck to drive well. We can do it! Oh, to answer the question, we can align vehicles with pretty much any rim/tire combo on the road today.

It just started making noise yesterday....
Lifted trucks eat wheel bearings. Lunch, dinner, you name it. A higher center of gravity puts more lateral force on spinning parts. If you have a lifted truck or just a truck you run in mud or water a lot come by and let us check your wheel bearings. Diesel trucks are often so noisy that you can not hear the tell tale hum of the soon to be departed wheel bearing. All terrain tires are very effective in hiding the noise as well. At Axle and Wheel we can repair the bearings on your car, truck, or SUV!

My buddy knows how to fix trucks....
At Axle and Wheel we hear a lot about good friends that are handy with front end repairs. Whats the harm in trying? Have a look.
Customer "A" had a friend fix his front end. He then hit the infamous pot hole in front of the A&W (no I did not make that pot hole...). The left front wheel tucked under and the young man came to a screeching halt if front of the shop. Wow what racket! Friends don't let friends friends work on their front end or brakes. It can get you killed. Customer "A" just barely missed a telephone pole...and my shop! Let us help you get your car fixed correctly and safely. As I am fond of saying "there is always a way".
