OFF ROAD EVOLUTION
WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING
A lot to say…
“The folks at EVO were recommended to me by a friend in the automotive industry. According to him, they had a level of knowledge and quality of workmanship far above the industry norms. My first experience with them working on my 2006 TJ indicated that was in fact the case. They were as quick to tell me what I did not need as they were to tell me what I did. I could see that they knew their stuff and that they were very honest…

The TJ, as nice as it was, had it’s limitations. Having come to the conclusion that I had never seen a Hearse with a U-Haul behind it, I left my house one morning in the TJ, and returned home a few hours later with a brand new 2015 Jeep Rubicon 4 Door. I asked Mel what he had in mind for it, and if he had anything I could test drive that was built like he proposed to equip my new Jeep. Within 5 minutes, I was behind the wheel of EVO Lander, of their creations. I previously had my own auto restoration shop, three and a half years driving race cars, and fly corporate Jets for a living, so I am not easily impressed. I found myself amazed at the handling of this highly modified creation I was so fortunate to be driving. I never thought something that big and that high could handle like a sports car, but it did just that. Wow!
With only 813 miles on my new Jeep, I left it with Mel and his gang for several days. Since then, I have yet to climb into my Jeep without a smile on my face. Being new at the off road thing, I have been quite regularly amazed at what my Off Road Evolution creation will do, but there was more to come.
I was fortunate enough to be invited along on the JK Experience, 7 days of hardcore offloading and an incredible road trip. It was some of the most challenging off road driving in the country. I felt like a high school quarterback playing with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but adult supervision got me thru, thanks again to Mel and his gang. I had no idea my Jeep could really do. It was a real bucket list experience, the time of my life. Great equipment, great people, great time, an awesome way to see America!”

The Real Deal…
“I took my jeep to Off Road Evolution to have them go through my rig front to back, top to bottom and correct whatever did not meet their standards. The service manager is super helpful and knowledgeable and didn’t try to upsell anything plus gave me the real info on how fast things would get done and cost. A nice change of pace from the other outfits I have dealt with that over promise/under deliver. I highly recommend them for your off road needs.”

My One Stop Shop
“I have been a customer of Off Road Evolution for over 4 years now. They are the only shop I go to for my off road needs, and for good reason. Having tried suspension systems from other companies I can without a doubt say that EVO Manufacturing’s suspension kit is the best. Further, EVO Manufacturing products are bullet-proof and are truly money well-spent. Off Road Evolution’s customer service and workmanship is also top-notch and Mel is an encyclopedia of all things off road. Off Road Evolution is my one-stop shop!”

Constantly Asked My Opinion
“I am constantly asked for my opinion on after market upgrades for my JK concerning suspension, lift kits, body armor, rock sliders, axles, bumpers, roll cage, skid plates and other off road products. My response is usually “if it is built by Off Road Evolution you will be happy with it.” Of course the response is usually “why?” to which I reply quality. Off Road Evolution does extreme R&D testing whether Dynatrac axles, King coil over shocks, KMC wheels or EVO Manufacturing Bumpers, Rock Sliders, Body Armor, Roll Cage or Skid Plates, they put it all through hard core use. Bottom line, their builds and products they support are proven.”

Done Right…
“I would like to say thanks to the whole crew at Off Road Evolution for the last 3 years of incredible service and high end products. My experience with ORE began last year with a simple re-gear and c-gusset install and recently expanded to a full King suspension swap and Dynatrac axles. During that time Mel has patiently taken the time to explain his recommendations without trying to up sell options and products I didn’t need.
If you are looking to upgrade or service your Jeep and want to have confidence it has been done right look no farther than Off Road Evolution. You will not find a company with more knowledge or better products, that matches their level of service anywhere!”

Quality of work done…
“I have proudly been the owner of my Off Road Evolution built Jeep for 5 1/2 years. After owning no less than 12 different types of 4×4 vehicles; Jeeps, Land Rovers, FJ40’s, Chevy and Ford trucks, some built by me and others by professionals in a shop, I can say that no other built up or modified vehicle I have owned can match the overall performance of my Jeep JK built by Off Road Evolution. It is truly the complete package, a comfortable daily driver and a hardcore trail rig built with race proven EVO spec’d parts.
The reliability of the parts used and quality of the work done by ORE has allowed me to put almost 4 years and 40,000+ miles worth of seriously heavy trail use. Off Road Evolution’s shop not only builds what I feel is the best off road vehicles, but their customer service is also the leader in the industry and is another primary reason why all my business is with them.”

From the start….
“From the start, Off Road Evolution has built an unsurpassed level of trust and confidence with me that is second to none starting with patiently answering every initial question I had, never up-selling me on any unnecessary components while always offering expertise and knowledge on how to build my JK right and to my level of expectation and need. Of course, it goes without saying that their reputation, design and innovation and expert installation is also industry leading.
We chose to drive over 500 miles to not only purchase our parts and equipment from Off Road Evolution but also chose them to install all of our upgrades to know they were done by the best. Their first hand knowledge and racing back ground combined with their shared passion to have fun off-roading with family and friends won our lifetime support and business.”

This is my second….
“This is my second Jeep and we take our trips seriously. Only Off Road Evolution can provide the level of service and knowledge to get us out and back safely. The entire team at ORE has been helpful, courteous, extremely knowledgeable, and genuinely friend since the first day I was in the shop. They won’t sell you more than you need, and always back the products they sell. For an avid enthusiast this is an amazing shop that will make sure you go out with the right gear to get home safe.
Mel also manufacture a line of products, EVO MFG, that are the most durable goods I have ever seen. I’m not too surprised though, walk into the shop and the walls are covered in articles written for top off road and Jeep magazines featuring the rigs, works, and tips from racing legend and owner Mel Wade. Now that I have moved out of Southern California, I will still make the 5 hour drive to ORE for all my Jeep needs. Thanks Drew, Mel, Lisa, Teresa, and all the guys in the shop!”

New to Jeeping….
“I am completely new to the world of off road and recently purchased a 2014 Jeep JK Rubicon to get out and explore with my husband. I found Off Road Evolution through my son who is an avid Jeeper and wanted to make sure I was taken care of given my relative newness to the sport. Drew and the team took very good care of me and didn’t make me feel bad for not knowing everything when I walked in.
They were patient knowledgeable and most importantly, didn’t try to sell me on a package, they worked on what I wanted to be able to do, and made the suggestions from there. I was so happy the day I picked up my Jeep from ORE, and have been even happier every day I take it out. I had no clue how stable and controlled I could be while taking my Jeep out to some of the harshest areas of the planet like the deserts of Vegas where I live. If you are new to the Jeep world and want a quality job done by amazing people, go see the team at Off Road Evolution!”
