What Your Vehicle Might Need

The professionals at MIT Drivetrain Specialists can take care of the repairs and upgrades you need to get/keep your vehicles off-road ready in San Diego County. Specifically, we cover the enhanced capabilities of the drivetrain and associated systems/components. See us for the repairs, conversions, and upgrades to your automobile’s driveshaft that will ensure proper transfer of power to the wheels and improve turning safety. Further, the driveline angle(s) may need correction. This is important to control vibration and optimize performance. Another frequent request is transmission work. We make repairs and conversions to achieve the desired gear ratios and do clutch work. We repair and modify transfer cases and differentials to help with traction. We can help you correlate the transmission gear, transfer case, and differential/axle gear ratios to get the FDR (final drive ratio) that best suits your application–less than 50 for regular use, 50-79 for trails/towing, 80-109 for intermediate trails/heavy towing, or 110-130 for rock crawling. We also provide custom axles, steering conversions/upgrades, and brake/master cylinder/brake booster work to assist you with strength, control, and safety. Furthermore, we install suspensions on solid-axle 4WD automobiles and Jeeps, including springovers, to accommodate the greater demands of off-roading.
