Vendors in the Bay Area? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

geberhard · 11-07-2006, 11:47 AM

Post up info on vensdors you recommend in the Bay Area.

Dublin - Minute Muffler, great custom work, and he has a CJ6

Livermore - Bayshore trucks - driveshafts, parts, etc

Monument auto parts - kick ass old school style stores where the people behind the counter actually know their stuff well

B-rad fab in the East Bay (Pm "Brad" on the board, or call him at 707-208-2499for all you custom fab needs).

Kick ass custom fab work, and fab skills, and extremely clean design, welds and tubing work.

jays68yak · 11-07-2006, 12:34 PM

www.pacificfab.net Whatever you may need done to your rig/car

I second all the ones you listed.

T34418L3one · 11-07-2006, 01:32 PM

another bump for minute muffler great straigt foreward work

BayAreaWheeler · 11-07-2006, 02:16 PM

Wicked Fabs in Santa Clara

Ryan (owner) has worked on the last three rigs ive owned. Always a pleasure to deal and provides quality work. Can either slam and bag your rig or give it the one ton rock crawling treatment.

here is my current rig - coming along nicely

turtle4x4 · 11-07-2006, 09:54 PM

bump for monument auto parts, they definitely know their shit.

cmasfca · 11-07-2006, 10:25 PM

Also "4 Wheel Specialties" in Concord has been good to me and seems like a knowledgeable guy who has been around the block.

cheap sunglasses · 11-19-2006, 09:50 PM

South Bay Driveline

got their card in front of me from when my friend had some driveshafts made. good quality and good price. In their office they have all the sick rigs theyve supplied shafts for, everything from buggys and boggers to drag cars.

573 w. julian st
san jose, ca 95110
(408) 995-6000

If I dont go to high angle I'll go to these guys.

Rockybar · 11-20-2006, 04:39 PM

Performance Drivetrain in Cotati (Santa Rosa area) Eric has helped me out alot and he does great work.

JeepingEaglesChick · 11-21-2006, 11:39 AM

Rod is the owner and runs the place. Starter and Alt repairs, upgrades, you need it, he can help. No connections except I have aways been a very happy customer.

tdavis · 11-22-2006, 05:25 PM

Monument Auto Parts in Pacheco is nice - like they said, parts people, not monkeys.

Concord Driveline - good prices and fast service. They extended my rear drive shaft, and originally built the front driveshaft (but bought from Jim@InchwormGear)

Old Time Gararge in Pinole is willing to do 'you bring the parts, we'll do the work'.

RockChump · 11-22-2006, 05:59 PM

Check Out Kyle of Driven Industries @ drivenindustries.net . Cool Guy nice tube work, Great prices. In Sunnyvale.

Vic Hubbards in Hayward. Cool guys little pricey but if you need something now they just might have it.

Wicked Fabrication X2 cool guy sic work. Sells a variaty of parts.

Monuments slogan should be "A parts store that knows what the fawk your looking for"

84scrambler · 11-24-2006, 01:00 AM

bay shore sucks bad, way over priced and the people there are jerks!

WHITE RHINO · 12-14-2006, 06:08 PM

Arabias OverKill is a great place
pacific-fab.net located in morgan hill seems to be good?
Steve at southbay is a great guy and makes bad ass drive lines

geberhard · 12-14-2006, 08:20 PM

Rockriders in Hayward. Jeddi has a great stock or aftermarket Jeep parts, soft tops, doors, bumpers, wheels, fender flares, and a lot of hard to find parts, new and used. If he does not have it, chances are he can find it for you.

Gui

Kurtuleas · 12-14-2006, 08:59 PM

Rockriders?

I never heard of it..... I checked the website and They guy actually has the softtop rear window rod that I have been missing for 3 years!

Where are they at? I could not find an address on thier site. Is it just an online store?

The only Jeep place in Hayward I know about is Archer Brothers.....

MochaMike · 12-15-2006, 12:17 AM

Monument?
Have you guys been in there lately?
They've been turning into Kragens.
I actually got the "Who makes International Scouts" from a guy last year.

Pacheco & Livermore still have a few good guys left, but the rest are trying to be corporate auto parts chain places.

If your in Concord, Check out CA Auto on Clayton Road. 925-685-7656
Clair has been running the little parts store for 20+ years and knows his stuff. He also likes to Hunt & has Jeep.
