Is there a decent offraod shop in the Asheville area? Any place anyone would recommend? I am not talking baout just bolt on stuff, but also someplace that can fabricate and build custom suspensions, drivetrians,etc.

the reason I am asking is, I am looking to open such a place. I am looking at a building in the south asheville area, just a modest 3 bay shop, but it would have the potential for more if business was there.

So basically i am looking for ideas here. Where does everyone go for repairs and parts? Do you like the prices and service you are getting there? Is there even a market for a new offroad and performance shop in town?

I am not looking to become some major corporation, just stay local and cater to local wheelers.

Any advice would be greatly appricieated!

Please feel free to post up here, or PM me with any comments.

Thanks!

All I can say is good luck! It's a tough market to get into...and good, paying, regular customers are hard to please.
 
Youve got a couple guys up there:
Coker Metcalf (sorry I forget his shops name)
Buckeye

are the first two to come to mind but Im forgetting a few. Follow your dream man, but if you want to make it big doing JUST 4wd related work...you are going to need a much bigger
demographic than Asheville
