Review №1

Happy Trails did the new wheels, tires, lift and accessories on our 2013 Jeep Wrangler in 2019. This was the first jeep we purchased so we needed an expert to help point us in the right direction for our wants. The finished product was spot on. Lindsey was fast to respond and answer any questions we had along the way.This year we purchased a 1978 CJ5 that needed a little TLC. Ryan was SUPER helpful and informative with the quote and he kept us in the loop along the way. Ryan is so passionate and knowledgeable about Jeeps (definitely an asset to the Happy Trails Team). Ryan always shows us some Jeep that are in the shop which we love to see. Melvin did the work on the Jeep for us and made some recommendations for the future so we could get her home and enjoy her for a bit. What a difference from when we dropped her off!!One of the recommendations from Melvin was new tires, we were shocked at the age of the tires. Since it is just to drive around the beach, we decided to hold off and get new tires and wheels next year. Well, it is not next year-lol, and we just ordered new wheels and tires (too excited to wait). We let Ryan know our choice for both and there was a little concern on our end about our selection. After taking the CJ5 and getting a visual with some tires in stock and discussing pros and cons with Ryan, we changed our mind. We so appreciate Ryans time - once again!The picture of the CJ5 is before the new wheels and tires. I will update soon! Lovin the Jeep Life!

Ryan at Happy Trails 4x4 did an excellent job quoting, communicating,and installing a much needed Back Up camera on our 2012 Wangler. The finished job looked like the rear camera and visual display were factory installed! Happy Trails 4x4 know Jeeps inside and out, and it was worth the drive from Nocatee to get the job done right.

Ryan and the whole crew at Happy Trails are awesome! Pricing is very good and they keep you updated every step of the way on the repair process. I got numerous calls and emails keeping me informed of my repair. They even gave me options of keeping or changing out parts to save me money. If you have a Jeep do not hesitate to take it here you will not be disappointed!!!

I worked with Ryan @ Happy Trails to spec out my lift, and he was great. He provided options and advice to meet my particular need, and I love the result.My 13 JKUR - with a leveling kit and 33s - needed new shocks. I decided to do it the right way and get a shock/spring kit. The Jeep with a new AEV dual-sport 2.5 lift drives so much better than it did, and in all honesty better than stock. I got almost 2 inches of additional height, and the old girl looks like a gymnast now. Shes ready to hit the rock trails in Virgina once again.Great communication from Happy Trails. Great process. Overall great experience. Highly recommend. Oh, and dont cheap-out on your lift. Your jeep deserves better.

I have recommended Happy Trails 4X4 to many people. A friend recommended Happy Trails 4X4 to me as the best in the southeast, and I recommend them in those same words.

I’ll never take my Jeep back to this shop. I was charged for a service that I didn’t approve & ended up having to pay for it in the end. It was something that I didn’t even want done to the Jeep. I was so upset! Terrible customer service & communication. Over the top expensive! I would not recommend this shop.

Happy Trails is the place if want your Jeep to look great. They work with me even after I asked a million questions and did a lot research. They are the Jeep experts. Whether someone who wants to do hardcore wheeling or like me someone who wants to lite off-road but great looking Jeep. They take care of everybody. Molly, Lindsey and the whole staff are the best!

Review №14

I have spent over $10,000 with this company. Both times I went for service here when I returned there were strange noises coming from the front end. I had to bring it back for the mounting bracket’s to be tightened for the front axle. Also one of the times when I picked it up it was very hard for me to shift and I had to return because of the problem. Come to find out they installed the transmission linkage incorrectly. Also the retainer that holds the rubber boot around the shifter was broken once I pick the vehicle up. The first time I went in for service I had them upgrade the entire rear end which was over $8000. So I definitely would not say that they are reasonably price. Their labor was extremely high for the job. I would not have even written this review but when I called back the day after picking up my jeep to explain to them that I can hear metal on metal when I go over even the smallest little bump they wanted to charge me to bring the vehicle back in after I just paid them over 2000 . Obviously when they replace the front axle something did not get tightened down correctly similar to what happen with the first time it was serviced. I like the people here and their shop seems like it is well organized but the only two times that I have used them there was an issue and both times they wanted me to pay them to fix their mistake. If they will reconcile the situation and tighten up whatever bolt that has not been tightened correctly I will update the review.

When I can’t fix my Jeep I call Happy Trails. I love the staff they are very knowledgeable and smart when it comes to your Jeep. I trust them to do it right the first time. I will be using them in the future for project I don’t want to tackle.

I’m very happy with the results for my jeep. I wanted to lift my jeep without breaking the bank, so Lindsey was able to put together a quote that gave me the lift height I wanted for an affordable price. A day after dropping off my jeep I picked it up and was very pleased!The jeep rides great and looks better than ever. I will be going back for new tires in the near future and I recommend happy trails to anyone who wants to make jeep modifications and have them done professionally. Coming from someone who doesn’t know much about working on cars, it was nice handing over my jeep to happy trails and having them do such great work in such a short amount of time. Thanks happy trails!

Definitely the place to go for Jeep and 4x4 needs. Did the build on my 95 YJ and engine swapped a 5.0l Coyote which had never been done before. Installation looks factory, and theyve been excellent with any issues.

The team at Happy Trails do amazing work! Cant recommend them highly enough. They installed a 2.5 inch lift on my JKU, wheels and tires and a heavy duty tire carrier. Flawless work all around, and now the jeep rides better than ever! Ryan and Christian especially were fantastic throughout - from my initial visit to talk options, through providing great advice on a lift package, wheel selection and answering my many questions. Ill definitely be back to have any future mods and work done with them - super knowledgeable, and highly professional. Thank you so much, Happy Trails!!!

This is the BEST Jeep place Ive ever been to! This is the first 4x4 shop Ive been to that doesnt try to sell you something. As a matter-of-fact, they detailed what I would need to do exactly what I want to do to my Jeep and even told me what places to search for on the Internet to find deals! AMAZING service! They then told me I could do it myself or they can help at any point in my build! I was shocked!! Who does this in todays society? Well, obviously, they do! Im a lifelong fan and client!!

5 Stars all the way! Took my wifes 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited in to have them fix a bad death wobble issue. I tried everything on my own I could. I showed up without an appointment and even with a full book of work they squeezed it in. It took less time than I was expecting. The price was more than reasonable. The parts and labor prices were so good I decided to go ahead and order some new bumpers for her Jeep and get some work done on my sons Jeep.

Came into happy trails knowing exactly what I wanted to have done to my jeep. Within a week all the parts were delivered and ready to be installed. They had the jeep for 3 days while they installed a lift kit, wheels, tires, and axle gussets. Couldnt have been more pleased with the ways things turned out. The spare tire wheel was damaged while they were mounting it and they were quick to order a new wheel, have it the next day, and hold on to it until I was able to come back. Will definitely be coming back to Happy Trails 4x4 for all of my future jeep needs.

The group at Happy Trails 4x4 made my dreams come true yesterday. I picked up my 2004 TJ after 2 weeks of impatiently waiting to see how wonderful (and big) they made it become. After 35x12.5 tires and a 3.5 inch lift, it looks so bad ass. Christian helped us with the design and parts, and we couldnt have asked for a more knowledgeable and friendly sales associate. I will never bring my jeep to anywhere else. You can tell they love what they do and are truly passionate about leading others in their envisioned direction.

Had my Jeep lifted by Extreme Truck Stuff. Looked really good, but steering was really bad (crazy sensitive and dangerous).Took Jeep to Happy Trails and they corrected the issue quickly and for under $200.Bottom line, dont take a Jeep to a Truck store.

Overall they do know Jeeps and can help make great upgrade recommendations. They are a bit slow to reply though and while they did say they would price match online, after part was ordered they said they couldnt because it was to much of a discount.Would still purchase Jeep parts from them though.

Kudos go out to the whole Happy Trails 4x4 team. From the office staff to the mechanics/techs and everyone in between. Each and every one of you deserve a standing ovation for a job well done. Also a BIG THANK YOU goes out to Christian. You went beyond my expectations and made it happen. You sir are a rockstar in my book!!!! I could not be more satisfied with the end results. Thank you all !!!!!!To all jeepers reading this review and cannot decide where to take your jeep, your search is now over. They are the best in their field and I highly recommend them. If you decide to go to the other place, you will regret it.

Once my insurance company was done giving me the run-around, I finally made it to Happy Trails. But this time was different. Id stopped in there before just to poke around, since they ONLY DO JEEPS. But this time I actually needed work done. Id bent the front steering components up pretty badly on my TJ. I was hoping Happy Trails could do it. When I dropped the Jeep off, Head Mechanic Melvin was wrenching on a Jeep in one of their bays with Johnny Cash playing as loud as he could stand. I knew then & there, Id made the right choice. During the time of the repair, Office Operator Molly kept in steady contact with me informing me of what theyd found and what they were doing. When I picked the Jeep up, the work theyd done was beyond my dreams. Better than the day it rolled off the line, no joke. Happy Trails has a Happy Customer, for life.

From the customer service, friendly knowledgeable staff to the quality workmanship, Happy Trails is top notch. I recently purchased an older Jeep and it is also my first Jeep. I love the Jeep and Happy Trails makes it even more exciting and fun owning it...and now it is reliable too. I had a lot done on my Jeep and they kept me informed and updated every step of the way. They also called when there was a price increase from the estimate…it was only about $30 more but they still called to let me know. The bad thing about Happy Trails is I love to go there to look at all of the other Jeeps and to get ideas…I am afraid this is going to get costly. LOL If you are not happy with a service company like Happy Trails 4x4, you just can’t be happy and probably have no business owning a Jeep anyway…they are for fun, happy people. Thanks Happy Trails!!!

I have a Trail Dash from Super Chips and was having problems getting it updated, finally Super Chips gave me there number and said go there and since they are a dealer for Super Chips they can updated for you, well before taking the drive i called just to make sure they can update it as an authorized dealer, but chris answered the phone and his answer was customers do the updates and they only install, so with that said anything they install software wise the do with out the lasted updates, contacted Super Chips and told them about my experience and they will ensure not to send any more business there way. thank god a have never taken my JK there.

Christian at Happy Trails 4x4 was very knowledgeable and helpful with the mods I was considering for my ’14 2dr JK. The team at Happy Trails completed a 2.5 AEV lift, 35” tire and rim, rear bumper with integrated carrier and third brake light install. The work looks exceptional and the pricing was very fair. Christian took extra time to ensure I was happy with the completed work. I will be taking my rig back to them for additional mods and would have no issue recommending them to friends, family or anyone else for that matter.
