I have a 2021 Rubicon and these guys helped me with a winch problem (it turned out that I had not attached a dedicated ground - they fixed it for a minimal cost).  I live in the mountains a good 3 hours from their shop and so it is bit of a commitment to get work done there.  But they treated me right with the winch problem, so when it came time to do a 2-3" lift on the same vehicle I decided to have them do it for me.  Because of the distance, I dropped it at the shop when they opened and then stayed in Colorado Springs until they had it done.  They walked me through the options, and once those decisions were made and they got to work on it right away.  They completing it by mid-afternoon and got me on my way.

I'm writing this several months later mainly because I didn't get around to it earlier, but I also wanted to wait until I could try it out on the trails as well as the highway.  In short, I am really pleased with the lift - the vehicle handles well on the highway, and with the move to 35" tires I've probably gained something like 3-4" in the height of the frame.  I took it on some red trails in the Moab area (Top of the World, Dome Plateau, others) - the vehicle performed perfectly.   No rubbing even at extreme turning angles, power seemed fine, extra clearance was wonderful. The gas mileage, which wasn't great to begin with, is somewhat worse, but that's to be expected.  I think the guys did a great job with the lift.

One thing I had to work out was that when I first got the vehicle out on the freeway various warning lights came on and the gear indicator disappeared (it's a manual transmission).  The shop had adjusted the speedometer as part of the work, but it turns out that the gear indicator is tied to some complicated computation that has to effectively be reset when you change tire size.  I immediately called Craig at the shop and although he didn't know anything about it he promised to investigate.  It wasn't a safety thing so I just drove it home and later did my own research, eventually finding a Chrysler document that described how to fix the problem.  Although Craig did not find any information on how to fix the issue, he nevertheless called me back after a few days to ask about it - I think most shops wouldn't have made that call.  As it happens I was able to execute the correction procedure and the problem was solved.  No big deal, just appreciated that they followed up.

Bottom line - they did good work on both the lift and the winch, and they treated me well.  Would definitely recommend this shop for work on your 4x4.

Had a winch installed on my 22 defender by these fine folks. They did amazing work. The fit is so precise and the modifications look like they were done at the factory.They were helpful and friendly. I'm not super knowledgeable on the topic of winches and they took the time to educate me in a non condescending way, much appreciated. Will return for future projects.

I have a 2014 F150 King Ranch that the previous owner had lifted with a Block on the Spring Lift Job. Made my truck slam on the smallest bumps and potholes. Brought it to another Auto repair place and they changed out the shocks and springs... no help! Brought the Truck to Predator and their team checked the truck out and identified the issues right away, saw the bad lift job, suggested repairs and came in on budget. My son who is a 4 wheel drive finatic checked out the job and also gave a thumbs up on the repairs. Nice to have a King Ranch ride like it should!. Thanks again Predator Team.

The team at Predator went above and beyond repairing my winch. I am from out of town and they got in and out in record time with excellent work and even better customer service. Highly recommend!! Also, their showroom is very well stocked!!

I recently had an oil change and tire rotation on my 4 wheel drive truck camper. They went above and beyond and did an outstanding job getting my rig ready for another adventure. I’m so grateful to have found a shop that could keep us moving!
