They do excellant work. They did my Trailing Arms over 10 years ago and they've held up just great.

How far are they away from you? I live in Morgantown and may need their services.

Not far from Pittsburg about 94 miles and 174 from Morgantown.

My wife and I go to lunch in the Finger Lakes Region for lunch, about 90miles one way. Should be a long day trip or overnighter.

I had them do a lot of suspension work on my 77. They did all the work as i'm getting to old to crawl around and do it my self. They did a great job and stored the car for me while i was recovering from a back operation. When my buddy and I dropped the car off at the shop Yogi the owner took us on about a hour and a half tour of his shop and storage buildings. Really a super person if you have a chance to meet him he will seem like a old friend. I have never heard any complaints about Bairs work. Thats the main reason I took the car 90 miles away to have the work done. Chuck

They are in my back yard as I live just a little north of Pittsburgh. There is a new catalog coming out so if you get on their web site be sure to ask for one. Their shop is clean enough to eat off the floor. They have a vast inventory and do some pretty cool stuff. I was totally impressed! www.bairs.com

I have used them too. I have bought many parts there, had my steering box, and my trailing arms rebuilt. Brian Bair has always provided first class service.
