Thank you Sean for fixing my truck. This shop is professional, organized and appointment structured. Under promise and over deliver. This shop is busy so it might take a couple tries to get a hold of them through the phone but its worth the wait. Im glad I found this shop well be using this shop for my future needs and recommend to anybody
Sean is the best. Seems to always be able to make time and get the fix/ job done. Definitely have put his work to the test on the trails. 100% recommend. Just know he is busy and can’t always answer the phone.
NO WONDER THESE GUYS ARE AT 5 STARS. I HAD MY GEARS DONE THERE ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. MY AXLE SEALS STARTED TO LEAK RECENTLY. I CALLED AND HE QUOTED ME $300 TO FIX IT AND LOOK AT MY REAR LOCKER THAT WASNT ENGAGING. I THOUGHT IT WAS A GOOD DEAL BASED ON THE LABOR INVOLVED. WHEN THEY WERE DONE, I WENT TO PAY AND HE WOULDNT ACCEPT. HE SAID HE WAS GOING TO WARRANTY IT SINCE HE HAD DONE THE GEARS. THIS WAS 2 YEARS AGO ON AN OFFROAD JEEP THAT GETS USED AND ABUSED AND HERE THEY ARE COVERING A WEARABLE PART. GREAT EXAMPLE ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF A CUSTOMER.
Its been a while since Ive used River City differential I moved out of state but I know one thing Sean is a top-notch mechanic and hes been in business a long time Im getting ready to have him do some work on my new Jeep that Ive gotten anyway thats the way I feel about him I highly highly recommend him to anyone for differential transfer case work all that stuff
RCD is a great place, Ive had them work on my jeeps 8.25 rear differential installing an OX locker and I plan on bringing them more work in the near future. It was installed correctly and worked perfectly from the get-go and was very reasonably priced. I scrutinize any work done on my vehicles carefully, and I couldnt find a fault, which is exactly what you want.Its a single owner/proprietor business and he has a lot of work which means he doesnt have an answering service, so expect less than immediate customer service. Sometimes, you just have to call back another day because hes either too busy or just not in the office. But your patience will be rewarded. Not that I have a lot of differential work done, but when I do this is my go-to differential shop.
Awesome service great price
Busy place, from reviews it is well known by the 4x4 community..River City Differentials was recommended by another shop, Red D transmission who doing some other repairs.Small shop very friendly staff. Did quality work.
This place is amazing and went above and beyond for us.
Amazing place. Had two different trucks worked on here and they were done perfectly. Will/have recommended and always will.
River City Differentials is the best differential shop in the Sacramento area. Sean, the owner is a very knowledgeable and skilled mechanic, his work is top notch. I’ve had Sean at RCD put 3.73 gears in my 2006 Silverado with an upgraded limited slip unit and stronger axles to handle the horsepower gains from turbocharging the engine. I recently took my 2020 Tacoma to RCD to have 4.88 gears installed in the front and rear differentials, and a Detroit TrueTrac limited slip unit added to the rear diff as well.
RCD and Sean is the place to go for any differential work. I brought in my rear differential which needed To be re geared and he told me one of the axle shafts Was bent. He told me exactly by how much. So I came back was another axle that wasnt bent and he quickly and efficiently installed gears for my front and rear. I would highly recommend him and would send any of my friends or family that need Differential work to him
Best place to go to, the guys there are very easy to deal with, and they do a good quality work. All my friends go there with all their differential work needs.
Sean is a miracle worker. He has 20+ years of experience and his work clearly shows it. I needed my jeep tj regeared after getting a new rear axle. Sean was friendly and easy to talk to. After I got my parts, I scheduled and dropped off my jeep. Couple hours later he told me Im ready to pick it up. Now I have taken the jeep to hell hole trail and it survived without a hiccup. Sean definitely provides great work at a great price.
The best differential specialists in town!!! Very friendly and helpful stuff.
Outstanding service and quality work Sean the owner is extremely helpful in getting you back in action . Weather it King Of The Hammers or the open highway and all points in between he got you covered .🤙🤙🤙
Have good prices
Fast service, great price. Will return there for all my other trucks and rigs.
Before finding this treasure I was told by my mechanic A, who had just changed management, things that did not make any sense. Price that was quoted by that that mechanic A was not clear and misleading. Then I called another mechanic B in the area I could trust and off the bat they told me to go to some guy in Gold River so I googled it and it was Sean, at River City differential. Got out of the shop with only 2/15 of the price I was quoted at the other place, mechanic A. This guy is a surgeon in the area of rear differentials. I left happy and my bank account is still intact. Thanks Sean!
SEAN, thank you so much for your assistance. When I need any other work we are headed your way. Great job.
They are excellent awesome service great people.
Does very high quality work at a great price! The most honest and best priced rear end specialist you will find in this area hands down. I should know being as I have had work done at other rear end shops in the past.
Excellent service, couldnt be happier
They do awesome work at reasonable cost!!!
Shop owner is super cool and laid back. Dont judge a book by its cover. His shop is small but he does superb work. Charges the cheapest out of all differential shops!! Finished in about a day. If u need your gear/diff work come here. But make sure to call to make an apt so u dont get turned around like me because it was too late in the day lol.
Couldnt be happier with the whole process. Shawn (I believe the owner) is a top notch guy and does excellent work. Went above and beyond, made me believe there are good honest mechanics out there. Would recommend to anyone, reliable and stands by his work. 10/10.
Found Sean 5 years ago for a differential rebuild, have brought my business back to the differential guru every time. Why shop around if you have the best price and are seeing a true expert. I have worked in auto repair for 24 years own my own shop for 8 years, and I do most everything but I dont rebuild transmissions theres a guy for that and this is the guy for differentials!
Good pricing and great work. I would highly recommend RCD
He rebuilt a differential on my 1 ton GMC van for less money than anyone else quoted me. He even threw in some good used parts at no charge. After over 6 months of operation the differential is working flawlessly. I would highly recommend River City Differentials to everyone!
Great communication great service great price! Great guy to work with did exactly what he said and Charged exactly what he said he would! Highly recommended
Honest shop!
River city differential is my go to gear and axle shop. They can help you with anything from your daily driver, rock crawler to a drag car. Great work and customer service! You wont be disappointed
Got it done fast and reasonably priced
Ive been taking my off road vehicle differentials to Sean at River City Differentials for over 5 years. Sean, the owner knows what hes doing and his rates are very reasonable. His recommendations are always in the best interest of the customer.
Shawn is a great guy! Very professional and does a great job.
3hours on limited slip 4Runner.. great job! Definitely my go to
They are not patient. They talk like they are always mad.
Great service at a GREAT price
I dropped off my axle shafts for new bearing replacement. They were nice enough to squeeze me into there busy schedule and completed the work on the same day. Service and pricing was excellent.
I brought my 98 ZJ. Sean did reading on both axles and installed rear Locker. Excellent job. Thank you.Misha Osipov.
Shawn does great work, and his shop is a pleasure to work with,he’s as honest as it gets in the auto industry.
I just needed some advice, very helpful!
Sean is the best in the busniess! His work is trusted to handle the Top horsepower and torque and punishment out there!
Fast service and great pricing!
Excellent place for differential work plus great fast service highly recommend
Thank you for fixing my rear end right! Its so hard finding good mechanics out there, this is one of them.
I was taking my kids to school and the rear end in my truck started jumping. I call several places and was told the entire rear end needed replaced and was quoted up to $1,800.00. I ended up calling river city and sean told me that it sounded like the spider gears and that they could be repaired. After his inspection he found that it was infact the spider gears and that he could repair it and the cost would be roughly a 1/4 of what i was quoted from others. He gave me 3 different options for repair before he got started.He had my truck repaired in less than 3 hours and the final price was almost half of what he quoted me. he was so nice to have an honest mechanic work on my truck. thank you sean you are now my mechanic for life.
They Did Good Job my REAREND
Quality work done on time and as quoted.
Very experienced and professional
Sean is an amazing mechanic.
Awesome
