I just want to say the first time I went to this place I was sixteen years old and had a 1965 Chevy super sport impala that was shaking so bad I knew something was seriously wrong. I was poor and had no money but wanted to find out what the bad news was going to be. When I went to pick it up and was ready for them to tell me something horrible, I was shocked. They told me that the car is fine and the shaking came from the aluminum fancy wheels that had been put. They replaced them with some regular wheel and wham the car was as smooth as glass. As recall they didn’t even charge me for the “new old” wheels”. They continue to be the only place I go to to get my tires balanced, and vehicles aligned.whenever I buy new tires I always bring them over because frankly they’re the only ones who do a perfect balance especially on my MotorHome. These folks are both competent, and honest. Not easy to find that.

Took tractor in on an afternoon and they order replacement parts within hours. Parts arrived following morning and repairs completed within hours. Picked up tractor less than 24 hours. Honest, professional, reasonable fee and experienced mechanics. Will be my #1 go to shop for my tractor and will recommend if you want reliable shop.

I refuse to let go of my 2001 Sequoia that has/had a rusted out frame. After a few days at Nelson my frame is welded and I feel safe back on the road again.

I went to get some work done on my 94 Chevy Astro they didn’t do the work right and then told me I was wrong, didn’t give me a right price and was very rude and didn’t care about what I had to say. The owner was the one I talked to and the other man that works there was rude and he told me one price and then change it when I went to pick my van up. They where very rude and don’t care about their customers.I WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN

Vehicle is still in process. Looks good so far. Update 12/29/2020. Manager took care of my vehicle. Several shops were clueless. Nelsons accurately diagnosed problems, advised me, and now vehicle is back on the road.

Absolutely great customer service! Very courteous and professional! Should you need a professional and precise computerized alignment to be set to your vehicle manufacturer’s angle specifications this is the place to go. Highly recommend this shop!Thanks Mark and staff at Nelson Frame&Axle.

Review №18

One of the most important part of a mechanic shop is the ability to be honest with the customers. Being able to be transparent with them and tell them exactly what is going on with the vehicle. Well, this shop has exactly that. I went to this shop for a second opinion and they told me a very different story from the first estimate I received. HONESTY, PROFESIONAL, AND QUALITY. I WOULD RECONMEND THEM for your car needs.

These guys are great, I have an old rusty chevy with a rotting out shock frame tube. They cut out the tube, replaced it and reinstalled my shocks, the truck rides so much better and less noise and ride disturbances. Great work!

Review №22

Called around to 8 different places for an alignment including a visit to Mercedes dealer and no one had the correct equipment or to align my car due to having wheels that wouldn’t accommodate traditional alignment tools as well as the car being lowered. I was referred to Nelson after checking around for weeks and got my car into them. They were able to perform an alignment without problems because of their modern laser alignment rig that doesn’t touch the car. The price was less than the dealer and done in a more timely manner than previous experiences elsewhere.

I am more than impressed with the gentleman I dealt with today. I had been told by a repair show that the frame on my 4Runner was shot and basically a death trap. I told the gentleman at Nelson Frame and Axle that I wanted to fix it if it needed it and he looked it over thoroughly and said that there was nothing wrong with the frame and that it was even in better condition than most hes seen of the same age. Super honest people and I will definitely recommend them and come back to them in the future. A+ all around.

Brought in my 2001 Honda Passport for a Frame swap in September.I had just purchased it for a bumper-to-bumper restoration, knowing that it had significant frame rust issues.I had heard about Nelsons, but hadnt experienced it firsthand.Mark and John (both old-school, stand-up guys) advised me to find a good used frame instead of repairing the old one. WISE move! Theyre genuinely interested in their customers AS PEOPLE and arent satisfied with just doing a good job - they strive for QUALITY and execute with EXCELLENCE. Their shop is fully equipped and their techs are courteous, funny, and SMART.Once I found a good frame, Don did the work - a COMPLEX job of separating the body from the old frame and transferring the engine, transmission and other parts to the new frame and reattaching the body. Just like Mark and John, Don LISTENED to me and answered ALL of my questions.When Thom (another experienced tech) stepped in to help, I got the chance to see how they work together as a TEAM. Theyre curious and creative and LOVE what they do. Whenever a problem arose, they solved it with knowledge and SKILL.After the job was completed and I left their shop, I knew for CERTAIN that I GOT WHAT I PAID FOR.Its October now and Im really enjoying driving my fully restored Passport (my first 4x4). Thanks to the guys at Nelsons, itll NEVER have a frame issue again.From my experience, if you want it done cheap, go somewhere else. If you want it done RIGHT, bring it to Nelsons and theyll take care of YOU.Terry Keith - a SATISFIED customer.

I give 5 stars to Nelson Frame because the Owner of the shop was very honest with me when hi hock my Freightlaner Cascadia in to the alignment machine and after he run a test he said I dont need anything done on the truck that everything was fine he dont even charge me anything for the time the mechanics spend on it... I definitely highly recommend Nelson Frame to all my friends. Thank you Nelson Frame.

I came in with a weird complicated alignment job for this company which was recommended by LV performance on South High Street which this family of mine recommended me to get my 2000 Crown Victoria aligned at this place they steered me away from Firestone on South High Street because of the Dirty Work that they do anyways got my car aligned and drives perfectly straight these men know their job and what they charge you is fairprice I recommend them I would write them 100 out of 100 if I could thank you guys!!

Right when you walk in the shop you will notice how disorganized the shop is. Broken parts, sockets, new parts all laying in the same pileI took a truck in to have an alignment done and walked away with a bad taste in my mouth. After having the alignment completed, we were told that the suspension springs were worn out. He commented that the vehicle would continue to wear tires abnormally, offering no solution. I asked to see the alignment numbers of caster/toe/camber but was told that the printer did not work. The mechanic who did the alignment rattled off a few values that he set the alignment too, while digging through a pile of parts for a another vehicle as if we were bothering him. After looking up the factory alignment specifications, he performed the alignment incorrectly. He set the vehicle to 0 toe, which is incorrect. Good luck telling them they did it wrong. As i was asking these questions about what they set the alignment too, the clerk smiled as if I had no clue about vehicle maintenance.Bottom line, run fast & run far. I wouldnt let them align my lawn mower.

Had my axle taken in to get the U-joint removed. They broke the ABS teeth off of one side. I would have been understanding had they not tried to pass it off as something I had done. They were friendly to my girlfriend, but I value honesty more.

Traveling in a motor home. Had a spring issue. Called John told me to bring in the rig. Kurt and Ed looked at the issue. Order the parts. Put the springs in and had us back on the road exactly when they said they would.I felt they went out of their way to help us.After we left them we hit some bad roads in Indianapolis. Sure glad they did fantastic work.These guys are the best.

The guys at Nelson frame and axle know how to get the job done right, I took my 1995 Silverado in for a frame repair and a steering gear box. The work performed looked better than new and the truck drives better than it has in years. I recommend these guys any chance I get.

I took my car here recently because this was recommended as a great place to get brake work done that is close to Bexley. They did great work on my car and even suggested a few things that needed attention down the road. If you are looking for auto repair near Bexley, look no further.

Honesty would be the best word to describe the work they do. They dont try to up sell you on things you dont need. I took my truck in for an alignment and when they found the break line was broken they fixed it before I got there and was reasonable on the cost for the additional work.

While providing a towing service for one of our customers we towed their vehicle for 200 miles from our facilities after it had been involved with an accident. Well as it goes our wrecker had developed some issues on the way to this location for our drop off. Being very busy the owner and shop crew worked feverishly to get my truck back on the road. I was expecting an astronomical bill considering I had no where else to go. They treated me 100% fair and did what they had to do to get me on the road. While also owning a repair facility at our home location its good to know there are still repair facilities who go out of there way to provide a amazing service and not out chasing the buck..... a very experienced staff to handle all your needs use these guys you will not be disappointed.

The owner or manager i dont know he was very nice and didnt seem like he was trying to get over on me. My car is there right now and i will always tell people to go to here he is very honest and he calls to let you know prices of things before he puts on your car. Thank you nelsons for doing a good job with people. I have been to three other places who told me other bullcrap and i knew it wasnt bad I knew it was my axle went bad but nelson told me the true and I thank him so much
