Our A/C machine coupler broke and we searched everywhere in Colorado for a replacement component with no luck whatsoever until Drew came to our rescue! He hopped on the hunt and was able to track down the last one in the state and got it in our hands in no time flat! He helped get our shop back on schedule! Thank you so very much Drew!

Elijah was awesome! I Called in to try and find a car cover for my Subaru and he said they didn’t have any in stock at the time so he was gonna order one from another store and let me know when it would be in. He was very polite and a standup guy! But then I got a call back from him within 10 minutes, telling me that he couldn’t get the one I was looking for because they had discontinued them. Even though he couldn’t get it for me, I appreciate his integrity. I will definitely be coming back here as I have been for many years, but he just made Everything as clear cut as it could’ve been. Thank you, Elijah!

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
