Pomona Gear

I cannot take my vehicles to any shop and trust that the job will be done correctly, honestly and without gimmicks. When I called and inquired at Pomana Gear, I spoke with SAM and we talked about what I needed. He took the time to hear and expressed genuine concern. I could hear his sincerity, humility and knowledge of what I needed for my car. Especially since I needed special attention to my classic muscle car- a 1966 Dodge Coronet 500. No matter what kind of vehicle you have, I can guarantee that you won't go wrong in choosing and trusting SAM and his crew. He does his research and treats every vehicle like if it's his own.

I first met Sam about 5 years ago, needed some drive shaft work done on my JKU. Fast forward to a couple of months ago and after trying to find a shop to do an axle swap, I was never comfortable with most of the shops Iout there. All these shops were worried about how it would look , mall crawlers. I remember seeing all the bad ass off road projects at Pomona Gear and paid a visit. All I can tell you is Sam knows his stuff. Completely satisfied with all the work I had him do, upgrade to Dynatrac 60’s, PSC steering, new hydraulic bump stops and new 8lug wheels. If anyone is interested in building something that can wheel, Pomona Gear is worth a visit

Honestly, honesty, quality and integrity are my top 3 characteristics for Sam, owner/operator of Pomona Gear. I've driven by his shop as long as he's owned it, always thinking it was a 4×4 shop. When my GMC 2500HD 2x4 needed front end suspension work I started my search for a good mechanic and through online reviews. After reading multiple 5 star, long winded compliments, I was compelled to stop in to check him out. I'm so glad I did. When he got to the point in our conversation where he stated he will treat my truck as if it were his truck...I believed him. He was true to his word on all counts; timeline, communication, price, follow-up. He got me to a good alignment shop and rechecked his work. Sam is friendly, knowledgeable and it was a pleasure doing business with him. And yes my truck runs smooth and straight as an arrow.

Let me say sorry Sam for being late on the review! To everyone else if you’ve got something going on with your rig or want to upgrade it bring it to Sam! I had issues as you can see in the pictures posted with my ring and pinion blowing up. I opted to upgrade both differentials from a 4:30 gear to a 4:88 Sam was also able to determine that the reason my front diff blew up was because the previous owner changed the rear to a 4:56 and left the 4:30 gears in the front. This was unknown to me and Sam at the time but once he removed all the old parts he notified me all along the way the things he found wrong. Gave me the price for repairs upfront and was true to his word once all was said and done! Ever since then about 3 weeks ago I’ve gone through the break in process with the new gears and people please follow the instructions and Sam’s advise on the break in process! I brought it back to him after 500 miles to do the gear oil change and so he could inspect the gears after the break in period and everything was perfect. Sam brought life back into my truck in the way it drives, how smooth it coasts down the road and how much easier it gets up and goes! I’ll be doing more business with him and bring my truck back for more upgrades Sam recommend! Sam I really appreciate all the work you put into my truck your a great mechanic and an even better man! Your a great guy to talk too and full of knowledge and experience and honest with your work! Thank you!

Such an amazing job on my YJ conversion! Sam does such great work and is super knowledgeable with all things Jeep! Put together my coil over conversion with new axles, gearing, driveshafts, suspension and transfer case! Super helpful and communicative throughout the whole process. I could not be happier with all the work that he did for me! Highly recommended and will absolutely be coming back for any additional projects I have!
