I have no way to explain the cluster of this car that Nate and I have been dealing with. I ended up having to drive 30 miles to the shop while he had the car in the air to go over what was already done that I changed at the owner of the cars request. Nate and I met with the car in the air and went over some changes that I felt needed to be made. He made it clear he set the car the way he was told. The owner of the car made changes mid build and did not let Nate or me know. So rather then get things twisted I went down and met with Nate to eliminate the middle man on the car. He knows his stuff and knows I wanted nothing but the best and to get it set to the way the customer wanted not the way the customer said... lol nate will under stand that one.... so today I went back down to the shop and Nate had the car in the air and changed what I had in mind for some supports that actually worked way better and made it way freaking stronger then my original idea would have... I worked with nate and his office staff to come up with paperwork to cover him and the shop if we need to send this car back to him. I know he will take care of if but I wanted to make sure he gets paid for his work. This was the after nate did it the first time and I changed the height wheels tires and angles. He got boogie getting it done right after this.... I will add more photos once the car is back... Thanks Nate and crew for your patience and understanding during this ordeal.

Great work in a good time by these guys. The rear end is in my truck, although it will be a few more months until it hits the road for a rest run. Highly recommend AZ Diff for your rear end work.

Nate and his team repaired the rear axle of my Ford Super Duty, and went above and beyond my expectations, even giving me a ride back to my office while they worked on the truck! They've got friendly, knowledgeable staff, and when they discovered the problem was larger in scope than I had thought, went out of their way to keep the repair affordable. I'm very happy with the repair they did, the price they charged, and how well they treated me. I'd have, and will recommend their shop to others. Thanks Nate!

Nate and his team do exceptional work in a short time. My situation was not ideal but they worked with me to get my 78 moving the way I want it to.

Had my truck regeared, a new rear differential cover installed and a few other jobs done, all work was perfect, done quickly and MUCH CHEAPER than what Bill Luke Ram had quoted me. Highly recommend the guys here to work on your truck.

We were driving through the area and had a major clicking/popping on our 25 year old CRV. I was worried it was the CV. Nate saw us within the hour, found the issue (the breaks had fallen off), fixed it, and sent us on our way. Even though he was busy with a bunch of other things he took care of us and only charged us for an hour of labor.His shop seemed busy but organized, all of which was a sign of a good shop. If I lived here I would use him regularly.

Arizona Differential / Nate came highly recommended by other local shops. Absolutely phenomenal customer service, quality of work, and pricing. They did a complete back end rebuild on my 2014 Ram 1500 when I was in an extreme time crunch prior to moving across the country. Would recommend Nate and his shop to absolutely anyone, any time. Thank you guys again for the incredible treatment.

Nate and crew did a great job building and installing a GM 12 bolt in my 67 Nova. They also installed Wilwood drilled and slotted rotors on all four corners. Very happy with the quality of their work!!!

Let me start by saying, these are the type of folks that give hope for humanity. Jennifer at the front desk was a joy and Nate is very knowledgeable and a straight shooter, a good man. I Brought my truck in to Arizona differential, Nate drove it for less than 2 minutes and knew exactly what was going on. They had my truck not even a full day and it was ready to go. Now my truck runs nice, smooth, and quiet. This experience was such a breath of fresh air for me, after another shop couldn t figure out the problem after having it for 2 weeks. Absolutely wonderful family owned business! Definitely recommend

I have a 2014 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon that had a broken rear differential locker. They had the parts in stock and were very familiar with the problem. I also had them build me a custom rear driveshaft and rebuild the front driveshaft. They did an excellent job and were fair and friendly. I have since gone out on 3 wheeling trips and everything is working great. I definitely recommend them.Service: General repairs & maintenance

Called in for a gear swap to 4.56s on a 2015 duramax. Over the phone they asked if I could leave the truck for 4 days. I get to the shop Monday morning and talk to Nate and he tells me if I leave the truck with him now he ll have it done by Wednesday. I explain I just built the motor and it s not even fully broken in so if he could not put miles on it due to the rings may bot be fully set. He said no problem we will only take it down the block to make sure everything is good. Wednesday get a call truck is done, check mileage, didn t drive it but couple miles. Super happy with the work they do Aswell as the cost was hard to beat! I would refer them to anyone! These guys and gals over there are stand up and stick to thier word! It s hard to find people like that these days, but good to know a reasonable and honest shop for differentials!Service: Steering & suspension repair

Less then a year ago i had Nate rebuild a 3/4 Ton 10 and 14 bolt i got for my square body suburban. Everything started out great. Took approximately a month. After install they lasted about a week before the rear axle started leaking, brought it back to nate and for two weeks i called asking for an update and nobody even knew it was at the shop. Finally 3 weeks later i get it back. With a few miles i hear grinding, i call nate and he says it s not the axle. I advise him I m bringing it to another shop and he becomes very rude and defensive. Within 30 minutes of the vibration rear axle seals blow again. Have it towed again and Nate says he was personally gonna do it. I ve now had it for 6 months and rear seal starts leaking again. I bring it to a closer and more reputable shop. Come to find out the seals were installed backwards, the spindle nuts were incorrect and not seated, and the wheel bearing nuts were too small and not locking down the hubs. Pay the extra money and save yourself the headache. Im actually terrified the try the transfer case he rebuiltUpdate: now my front axle is leaking

Brought in my 2012 Ram 1500 desert truck to have the rear diff rebuilt a couple years ago, they did an excellent job and has a very quick turn around time. Fast forward about 10 months and I blew the spider gears out of the carrier. Not only did they warranty their work but they went one step further and offered to replace it with a different carrier entirely at no charge for the install. Recently blew the rear diff again, they continue to provide the best customer service I ve ever experienced and deserve far more than a 5 star review.

Excited to try the new Gears. 4:56 per recommendation of Nate the owner from a 4:10. Hoping for a large decrease in my 60ft. Super cool guy and friendly knowledgeable input. Highly reccomend. Fast turn time and reasonable prices.

These guys are great they took my truck in on Thursday and said it wouldn't be ready till maybe Tuesday or Wednesday of the following week. They called me on Friday instead of truck is done come and get it so far they have done an amazing job great people. I have met the boss Nate and he is very nice and down to earth very much wants to serve his customers. I highly recommend going to see these guys and you have differential problems I went through two others before I found him so hopefully I could save you that trip.

I took my JKU in for gears back in July and Nate and Jen were absolutely fantastic and delivered my rig on time and hassle free. This week I had them upgrade my front axle and install lockers front and rear. Nate was able to squeeze me in on the short week and get my rig back to me before the holiday at a great price. Solid family owned and operated shop! Thank you guys!

It was our lucky day. Our mechanic recommended this place for work he couldn't do. They were able to get us in and complete the work the same day. So quick and efficient.

My normal shop found an issue with my rear differential and told me Nate would fix it faster and cheaper than he could. Nate had my vehicle done in a few hours. Also, my truck is very old and during the test drive he broke my door handle. I told him not to worry, it's old and wasn't his fault. But he insisted on sending me a new door handle. I had it two days later.

I used Nate to have my rear differential rebuilt in my 2015 Duramax. It was making an awful noise from the rear differential. I dropped the truck off on Monday and by Wednesday it was all done. The noise is gone and it drives like new. His crew was honest and upfront. The bearings were shot and it needed a full rebuild. I m happy with the work and will definitely recommend this shop for any differential work.Service: Steering & suspension repair

Great service! Did a really nice job. Would definitely recommend them. A bit hard to find, just keep going down 36th Ave to the end of the street. It's on the east side.

I needed my rear axle bearing replaced in my Nissan truck before I could take trailer and leave back home. Called on a Friday. They fit me in for Monday and got it done for me. Friendly staff. It s not a swanky clean shop . They are really busy and an older shop yard that s crowded and cluttered. So what I say. If the shop does the work and you can drive away it s all good. Shop was recommended by a friend who lives in Phoenix and flips cars.

This is definitely the shop to go to. I got my front differential regeared to match the rear, and it did not take very long (3-4 days). They were very knowledgeable and diffs and axles are their specialty. Will recommend this shop to all of my Jeep buddies.

I have lived in the Valley for 15 years. Since day 1 till today, whenever I call the lady who answers the phone has to "Go ask the Boss" for literally EVERYTHING! Pricing, parts availability, even hours of operation. Ridiculous way to run a business.

I used Arizona Differential by Nate about 8 months ago and decided to leave a post about my Sliver 2014 Wrangler he did some work on. He installed 4.88 gears front and rear with a rear locker and posi up front. The locker for the front wasn t available coming out of the Covid ordeal, so he installed posi up front. Man, what a great job, this Jeep wrangler s performance is out standing, and I highly recommend this shop to anyone who s interested in modifying their rig. Hoping to get that front locker installed soon. Thanks Nate and team. Also, great customer service and quick response on job completion.
