Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Jim, the owner, took the time to give me a tour of the place and answered all my questions, in detail, regarding future modifications on my Jeep. Also, charged me $240 less than his original written estimate. Honesty and integrity....very rare nowadays. I highly recommend!!!

These guys are amazing. Went in to do a 4in lift, new wheels and tires. They did an awesome job realized my dream of having a lifted truck. Explained everything I wanted done on my truck and they did an awesome job. Dont have enough words to thank these guys. If youre looking for quality work take it to EVB. These guys know what theyre doing. Thanks for realizing my dream EVB!!!

Professional and Knowledgeable. I did some research prior to choosing a shop to work on my Jeep, and trust me, this is the place to go for your performance upgrades! They worked on my Jeep JL and did a fantastic job!

I ordered a tire carrier from Amazon that was supposed to be 2 day delivery, one week later it never showed up. I spoke with the team here, they were very happy to help and they could get it next day to the shop. The carrier showed up on time and I picked it up a day after I ordered it, brought it home and put it on. Ill order all my Jeep parts through them from now on. Excellent service!

These guys are simply the best. They have done a complete Jeep for my son and now are working on my my Ram Rebel. Amazing attention to detail and extremely knowledgeable about anything off road or performance oriented. Very fair with pricing. Wouldn’t trust my vehicles with anyone else. Keep up the great work guys. You have a customer for life.

Went in on a Saturday to inquire about having work done on my lifted 04 F150. Woman and gentleman at desk didnt know much other than they wouldnt be able to take the truck for some time. I said that was fine with me. I left my name + number + email per their request. I was told I would receive a call back by Tuesday some time.Its now almost 2 months later. I never received a call. This is a huge disappointment since I read some reviews and they seemed positive (while others were not) and a friend gave a strong word of recommendation that they have since apologized for and expressed that they would not recommend them again.Seems to me like they are only interested in working for friends or friends of friends. Its who you know, right? Also seems like they only want to work on Jeeps. While other vehicles bring in revenue, I have a feeling they would any Jeep before my truck. (I also own a jeep!)I will be looking and taking my business elsewhere.

Website, google and thier own message says they open at 9 on Saturdays. I showed up at 10:15 (I did not want to be the guy waiting at the door.) To price and most likely order a small Coil Over lift & a weight distribution hitch) for my 18 Tacoma which I need sooner than later. Im picking up a camper in 2 weeks and need to have the vehicle done. Sad that they run thier business this way.

I looked at Alecs review but I had a great experience myself! I put a power step in my jeep and Adam was very helpful. I can tell he had a passion for what he does. It took an hour less than he had quoted and he was honest and told me about it and I paid lower than the estimate! Im going back and would recommend them with no hesitation.

Jim and Adam helped me turn a stock Chevy Silverado truck into my own. I didnt do anything crazy, just a 2 level kit and new wheels along with some steps, etc. Adams knowledge of tire sizes and dimensions is mind blowing. He is a living wheel calculator. Jim, (I think the owner), still loves his work and shows passion. One of the workers saw me overlooking my truck in parking lot and came over to see if I was happy. Every time I go there, they give me the time of day, great chat, super experienced guys who make this sport fun for us non mechanics. I would definitely recommend these guys. AND I appreciate their shop. Parking lot is tight, so I was nervous leaving my 2015 Chevy there, but they took care of it. Thanks guys

Did a great job repairing my wrangler. Everyone is truly in tune with their work and even went as far as to stay after hours to diagnose my problem and make sure it was fully repaired. Its refreshing to see a group of people that care and love what they do for a living.5 months later and i am still beyond happy. fixed my problem and followed up with a check up., unheard of out of an auto business.

Real pro’s here. They provide sound advise on the best way to accomplish what you’re trying to do, so that in the end, you get the best product possible. Jim and the staff go above and beyond, no matter how big or small your project. Will not go anywhere else! Just an awesome experience from start to finish, even though it took a while to get the right rims and tires in for my T4R! ;)

It is always nice to deal with real people who enjoy what they do. I have dealt with Jim and Adam many times and they always take the time to talk with me about my Tahoe even when they have a lot going on in the shop. They are the type of company who knows how to build a project correctly. They have the experience and recommendations to get it done. Great thanks to the whole team at EVB.

Top-notch shop. Excellent work overall, unparalleled fabrication and custom installation work.. Treat each vehicle as if it were their own.

Review №21

Terrible alignment. Had my buddies truck done here as well as mine. Zero craftsmanship and zero respect for vehicles. My front tires wore out extremely fast and I brought it to another place who said my alignment was very far out. Buddy had custom powder coated work done under his truck which they scratched and chipped. Took chunks out of his tires. Couldn’t give me a print out of my alignment because they said the machine “came unplugged” after they did the alignment. I did buy my lift from them and their prices are very fair.

The only place I would buy from plus they go out of their way to help you and have very fair prices. I have ordered countless parts and helped teach me and coach me on what would be a smart purchase.

From day one, Jim and Adam have been nothing but great. They took my stock wrangler and turned it into an off road machine. Whenever I need help, no matter how small the request, they are always there to help. I cant imagine taking my Jeep anywhere else.

Review №28

I gave it a few months to make sure my engine didnt fall out because of some of these reviews. I have nothing but good news to convey. I had them put on a BDS leveling kit and some new rubbers. I live an hour away so I stayed the entire day to have it complete. This team is nothing but professionals. They were extremely nice and even included me in their lunch plans, as they had my vehicle in the back. I got this done back in January and have been living it. The Nittos are great tires, I feel I could have gone one more size up in tires but at the end of the day, I am very happy with the work and the professionalism of this place.If I had to give one needs improvement it would be to upgrade their waiting room. They desperately need a new couch, coffee table and maybe a TV lol.I would recommend this place to anyone needing work done. All around very satisfied customer!

So helpful. I was in a bind for time. Needed to go away for a weekend meet. They got me ready in time by calling in an extra welder who repaired the ripped off track-bar bracket on my JKU. Thanks guys. Already told my neighbor who also has a JKU and is looking for a good place for mods. For anyone on coastal Fairfield, they are an easy Uber ride from the Danbury train station.

I had a 2:30 allignment appointment, I ended up sitting around until 3:45 until they actually brought my Jeep into the shop and still when I drove it home the problem was not fixed. They charged me over $100 for an allignment that one of the mechanics said to me wasn’t perfect but better. It wasn’t any better, if anything it was worse than it was before. I want to like this place but this was my first time doing business with them and it was not something to go back for.

As always good service and they had two of the 6 spline lug nut keys I needed in stock at a price that beat the internet. Thx Adam.

Review №32

Brought my car to the dealer for an electrical problem. Before even looking at the car they do a front end alignment check. It shows the front end is out of alignment. Not trusting them, I brought it to Jim to check it out. Turns out the alignment isnt perfect but its well within specs. PS. Dont trust dealer testing to up-sell you. Trust Jim to tell the truth.

Review №33

Dont go here... Jim and Adam are lazy, incompetent, dishonest, and sneaky. They offer ridiculous prices for the services they provide and charge you an extra arm and leg for any service they think you may need. Clayton Offroad in East Haven CT is 100x better and their estimate was more honest too. Funny how EVB found ways to add $1,000 to a simple re-gear while others had honest quotes and prices. On top of all that Jim (the owner) didnt return calls and hung up on me many times while I was trying to get details about the quotes I had gotten. I was recommended to come here and now I am recommending that you dont go here. Stay away from here!!!

Incredible guys. Just Incredible.I was on my way to NYC for a work contract in my 1974 Airstream Argosy Motorhome when the engine died just outside of the ironically named Mechanicsburg, PA. Not a good situation. I dont know many people in the Northeast and I especially dont know any mechanics.I contacted a friend who I know is a total gear head and asked him if he knew anyone who could help me out. He told me about Jim at EVB and that they work on Jeeps and off road stuff but maybe Jim would work on my camper since he also has campers with the same type of motor (a 454). My buddy called Jim up and thankfully he said that hed help us out.I had the motorhome towed to Danbury and went to meet with Jim about it. Before we even spoke though, I walked through his shop and noticed one of his guys spray painting some silver screws black so that theyd look nicer when applied to the bumper he was installing. Having been in the car business before, I thought now thats attention to detail.Upon meeting Jim, I knew wed come to the right place and felt confident he and his mechanic, Chris, were the right guys for the job. Jim explained to us (the wife and I) what was wrong, what needed to be done and that he intended on going through the entire camper for us to make sure that wed have trouble free adventures for the foreseeable future.The motorhome needed a new engine and to have the entire front suspension and steering column rebuilt. He advised us to go with a Jasper 454 engine as it had the 3yr 100,000 mile warranty, they cover a larger percentage of shop labor, and there is a nationwide network of shops that can do the warranty work.. He also had Chris work on our generator which hadnt really worked since wed purchased the motorhome a month before.The work was spectacular (minus the generator...more on that in a minute). Expensive, yes, but spectacular. It took EVB two months to complete all the repairs and the bill came in considerably higher than any of us expected, but we were ok with that because the work was quality. I mean really well done. When we test drove the motorhome after the new motor and new front end were done, we seriously could not believe it was the same vehicle. It sounded great. It rode great. The steering was nice and tight, the motor hummed (quietly). It was amazing.We were so happy with the work these guys did. I honestly wish I could take all of my vehicles to them (but cant as I live in Texas). Jim is honest and forthright. And he really does care about the work that comes out of his shop. Chris is an expert and did a fantastic job of showing us around the motor and how to care for it. Jim spent all kinds of time showing us things about our motorhome that we didnt even know we needed to know and in addition, he even drove 45min to where we were staying in the camper to check on the generator when it wasnt working right (turned out to be low oil). Ive honestly never had such a disastrous mechanical issue and can say that this was the best experience from a repair shop that I could have asked for.Jim is also really responsive to emails and has helped advise us on an off road vehicle we recently purchased. I think maybe we bug him too much but he still responds. :)On a not so great note though, the generator has again stopped working and we need to have it checked, but overall, the camper runs like a cheetah.
