The Mechanic

I'm a certified, insured mechanic and fabricator. My specialty is rugged upfitting and heavy-duty repair — the kind of work that has to hold up when you're miles from the nearest shop.

I got into this because I wanted to build things that last. Not just repair to spec, but understand the machine, know its limits, and build past them. The Camel Trophy shaped how I think about equipment: purposeful modifications only. Nothing that adds complexity without earning its place.

The Jeep YJ is my canvas. Everything I put on it demonstrates the philosophy — minimal, tough, purposeful. Before anything goes on a customer's rig, it gets tested on mine.

My skills go past a wrench. Welding, fabrication, CAD design, 3D printing, custom electrical systems and wiring harnesses, suspension, HF/VHF/UHF comms integration. When a part doesn't exist or won't hold up, I build one.

I work directly with you every time. No front desk. No callbacks. You call, we talk about the repair, we build a plan.

Field-Ready. No Exceptions.

Most shops wait for vehicles to come to them. My customers operate where tow trucks don't go — remote jobsites, rough terrain, off-grid. Whether it's a lifted Wrangler on a trail or a fleet of excavators on a hilltop, the work is the same: diagnose it right, fix it in the field, and get it back out there.

Rugged Upfitting

Custom electrical systems, wiring harnesses, suspension upgrades, onboard welders, expanded fuel tanks, stainless AN plumbing, CAD-designed brackets, 3D printed components. Built for your application and tested in the field — not on a spec sheet.

Field Repair & Maintenance

Engines, drivetrains, fuel systems, generators — in the shop or wherever the machine sits. When your equipment breaks on a remote jobsite, I diagnose and fix it right the first time. No towing. No waiting on a shop slot that doesn't exist out there.

Mobile Service

I come to you. Job site, trail head, remote location — wherever the equipment is. Shotgun is equipped for serious mechanical work in the field. Caveman gets where trucks can't.

Custom Fabrication

When off-the-shelf parts don't exist or won't hold up, I build them. Bumpers, skid plates, mounts, brackets, tool storage. If you can describe what you need, I can build it — and it'll hold up.
