I highly recommend Luke and his team of expert diesel mechanics. I drove almost 2 hrs from Peachtree City Ga, probably passed right by dozens of mechanics just to have SBAW install the S&S DCR pump conversion on my 19. 6.7 powerstroke. Price was fair and service was top notch! Hopefully now I won't have problems with anything on my truck but if I ever happen to Luke and SBAW will get it fixed right up for me. Thanks Luke! Keep up the Great work. Ande Ward

SBAW Did a fantastic job replacing the Turbo on my 2022 GMC 2500. Luke and his team diagnosed the issue and had me back on the road in no time. The biggest compliment goes to how they communicated with me and made me feel like I wasn’t just another costumer, like the bigger franchise shops do…I will certainly continue to have my service done here at SBAW!

Southern Built Auto Works is a great shop! I've used them twice for service on my 2013 Ford F250. Their diagnosis was spot on, they got it in right on schedule and repairs were done in a timely manner. The truck is running great. Runs strong and is even getting much better fuel economy. I will use them again when needed and would highly recommend them!

Luke and his team at SBAW are top notch! They are professionals that have unmatched work ethic and are as trustworthy as they come. My truck went down and they installed new injectors. I really needed my truck back as it is my daily work and personal vehicle, and the men at SBAW put in some serious overtime hours on a Friday night, to get me up and running. Now, my l5p runs better than it ever has. They've got a lifetime customer in me! Southern Built Auto Works is THE diesel shop to go to around here! None other comes close, and I've been to a good many!

I have a 2012 ram 2500 Cummins that I only trust Luke and the guys at southern built auto works with. I have come to them for many services in the past, but I just had a 2nd gen swap done on my truck recently by these guys and I am lost for words. Absolutely love the truck, how it sounds so aggressive and drives beautifully. Luke walked me thru a couple ways to fix the issue with my stock turbo and we decided on the swap and I am very happy with the outcome.
