This place is great! Wes is friendly and knowledgeable and helped me figure out the best option to lift my truck. I came in not knowing anything, just knew I wanted a higher truck lol but they were patient to answer every question and make sure we were working in my budget. Got the truck in first thing in the morning and they had it done same day! I'm so excited with how it turned out and super happy to know about this place! They are honest and don't scare you into fixing things that don't need to be fixed, work with your budget in mind, even price matched tires at a better rate! Highly recommend these guys, thanks Wes and Bruce (and everyone else at Adrenaline Offroad & Customs)! read more

Adrenaline Off Road - Auto Repair Near Me - Burtonsville, Maryland

I heard about Adrenaline Offroad through the Jeepforum website. The owner, Jeff, was consistently acknowledged as being thorough and fair, and somewhat OCD about the work he performs. Since I was looking to get a bunch of new items installed on my recently acquired 1996 Jeep Cherokee, and since the dealership was ridiculously expensive, I contacted Adrenaline. Right from the start, Jeff was promptly answering all my questions, and even bringing up some issues or better practices I could explore along the way. The work I needed done was not simple - a whole new suspension, new brake systems, new driveline, new steering link system, and new slip yoke eliminator - but his shop was more than up to the challenge. They work on all kinds of Jeeps, and he is himself quite an enthusiast, with several Jeeps of his own and an active participation in the local wheeling community. As the work was being done, he updated me constantly with progress reports and problems discovered along the way. He always gave me options and his personal thoughts on how he would do things. He answered so many questions, including those not directly related to the job at hand. In fact, every time I visit, he and the other guys in the shop are friendly and more than willing to talk about Jeeps in general or yours in particular. They always seem to have cool projects underway and are always happy to have you up and under to look at what's going on (on yours or someone else's). After the work I had done, Jeff insisted that I bring the vehicle back in after 1000 miles to make sure that everything was working fine. In fact, we found a small problem with a failed seal on the transfer case, and he plans to install it as soon as the replacement comes in from the manufacturer. He is always quick to respond via email to questions. Currently, I am waiting to have a new rear bumper installed with the shop, and I will certainly be headed to Adrenaline Offroad for many more of my projects with the Cherokee. The only reason I gave 4 stars is for responsiveness. I often have to wait a week or two for an appointment, since there are only three lifts in the shop and there are ALWAYS tons of other projects they are working on. I understand this, and in no way do I think it detracts from the overall quality of the business, it's just a reality I would let others know about. Otherwise, I don't trust anyone else with my Jeep. read more

Had my Jeep lifted by Jeff about 15 years ago. Had some items that needed repair recently that I didn't think regular mechanic could handle so I took Jeep back to Jeff. Jeff and the guys did detailed inspection and worked with me on keeping the costs down. Very happy with their work on my 95 YJ. read more

Excellent service and professionalism. I can't wait to go back with a bigger project. These guys really helped me out with my YJ.

Bottom Line: I highly, HIGHLY recommend Adrenaline Offroad for any and all Jeep Wrangler repairs, modifications, etc. They know what they are doing and they will treat your Jeep like their own. I recently bought a used 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sahara TJ with a 4-inch lift kit and 35-inch tires. I took it to a regular mechanic where it passed inspection without issue and they had no additional comments. I am not a mechanic, but given it was a used, modified 17-year-old off-road vehicle with a decent amount of rust, I knew there were probably lots of things that could or should be fixed and upgraded. Further, the Jeep did not feel safe to me when taking turns and I could hear noises indicating some linkages in the suspension were probably due to be replaced. I had previously owned a 1998 Wrangler with the same setup and could immediately tell this Jeep felt different on the road in a bad way. I was also interested in learning how to work on the Jeep myself for regular maintenance and easier repairs but I had no way to identify and triage potential problem spots, and I wanted to make sure I prioritized any important repairs before I started spending money on cosmetic aspects of the Jeep like new rims or a new sound system. I brought the Jeep to High-Tech Auto & Truck Center in Chantilly, VA to ask them to look it over. I sat in their waiting room for maybe 20 minutes and they returned saying that the rear upper and lower control arms needed to be replaced and provided me a quote. While they were very nice and meant well I did not have an opportunity to speak to the mechanic who looked the Jeep over and I generally felt as though I was not given the time of day. What I wanted was someone to tell me what they thought of the Jeep, what they would do to make sure it was road worthy, someone with expertise who would treat the Jeep like it was their own. After reading some additional reviews, I contacted Jeff at Adrenaline Off-road. Jeff had me drop the Jeep off and charged a small fee to look it over and identify any problems. Jeff emailed me back a couple of days later with an EXTENSIVE and EXHAUSTIVE list of problems big and small, the most troubling being rust through spots on the frame and the lift kit being improperly installed. While I was dismayed there were so many issues with the Jeep, I felt like I FINALLY found someone who knew what they were doing. Again, I was of course dismayed with the number of issues, but I felt much more confident that any and all issues with the Jeep had been identified and I could move forward confidently with a plan to fix them. I asked Jeff for his thoughts on the way forward and he treated my Jeep as though it was his own. Jeff is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and patient. I was in constant contact with him throughout the process and we triaged the most important issues and developed a plan to repair them. Jeff and his team replaced my entire suspension with a brand-new Rock Krawler long arm kit, replaced the steering system and tie rod and drag link, repaired the rust through spots on the frame, and cleaned and sealed the frame with POR (Paint Over Rust) to prevent further rusting. These were extensive repairs that would have been impossible for me to do myself. I was able to repair some of the other problems (like the leaks) myself which would have been difficult to diagnose as a desk-jockey mechanic. At the end of the day I am extremely happy with how the work on the Jeep turned out and I do not trust the Jeep with anyone else. I occasionally drive the Jeep to work and have taken it off-roading twice now and I can say it performs amazing on both highways and the trails. Thank you again to Jeff and your whole team who worked hard to make my Jeep awesome! Stop reading reviews now and take your Jeep to Adrenaline Offroad, you won't regret it. read more

Had the lift taken off my 1999 Wrangler Sahara and lowered back down to stock height after years of abuse. I also needed to fix a multitude of things due to normal wear and tear. After getting quotes from a couple of places, to include High Tech, I decided to work with Jeff. I felt like he treated my Jeep as his own. He took the time to give it a thorough examination with a fair cost estimate, which was lower than my other quotes. His knowledge of Jeeps is incredible and I will be going to him from now on with any future issues. I am not from this area and did not have any recommendations to use him, but I'm glad I did my homework and didn't settle with any of the other places. Thanks Jeff! read more
