Bear Frame & Wheel

This old fashioned business, earned me as a customer. After an annoying ticking cracking sound for a few weeks I decided to have Bear frame check it out… A couple mechanics spent half an hour testing driving inspecting and prodding the car to suggest I had an internally damaged strut/​shock. Gave me a quote. for repairs,.no charge no pressure, they didn’t want my money. I was impressed by the free diagnosis, and returned and tbey fixed it flawlessly. I’ll be back
classic and any other cars, I feel they are honest and they earned a new customer.

Have been dealing with them for a few years and i love they’re work, very knowledgeable, great customer service, the girls in the office are awesome, always willing to help, highly recommend them.

First time here for an alignment for my 1997 Camaro, on recommendation from La Puente Auto on Hacienda. I was greeted by Rick. The job was quick, and Rick was professional and seemed to know his stuff. Coming back here for my suspension needs.

I can always rely on these guys to fix my coilovers or to give me an alignment when I go and mess everything up.
Thanks to the entire crew here for making me feel welcomed every time

I take my car for servicing usually to the Chevy dealer in Montebello and was quoted an outrageous price on fixing something that was wrong with my brakes. I don’t know much about cars other than knowing when my car is not driving right, or if it’s shaking when I brake. The service rep at the dealer obviously can see this, along with the fact that I’m a lady who they think they can take advantage of. Anyhow, the dealer quoted me over $ 1200 for a bunch of stuff they said was wrong with my brakes. I told them I’d think it over.
A few days later I went to this place which is super close to my house. The young lady was super friendly and seemed to know what she was talking about. I left my car and within three hours they called me back and the job was done. They’d fixed my rotors. The charge? $ 185. Total.
I’ve taken my car back since. One time they didn’t even charge me for taking a look at my brakes (again, after the dealer’d said there was something outlandish wrong with my brakes or alignment or something like that) and told me the car was fine. At this point they could have just made something up and charged me a boatload. But that’s not how this place works. They seem to have lots of long time customers and that makes sense. Customers stick with what works and where they are not getting ripped off.
Good people at fair prices.

Wow where do I start. Its pretty hard now a days
To find a shop with decent people that you can trust .Well look no further This place is great I brought in my SUV after 3 amigos on arrow hwy in Baldwin park thought I was stupid and tried burn me for almost $ 400 telling me my ball joints on both sides were bad. I’m pretty knowledgeable about cars and such and thought all I needed was an alignment job so they had my SUV up on the the racks within 5 minutes and did a complete inspection turns out I was right and just needed an alignment job and a lil air in my tires now they could have lied and said something else was wrong but they didn’t This place is awesome from the lady at the front desk to Dominic the Mechanic who worked on my car and all the other guys as well. Thanks again guys I highly recommend coming here first people you won’t regret it.

Honest hard working mechanics are not easy to find and these guys are legit. I’ve done mainly suspension related work and alignments here but have had great experiences with their customer service and quality work. I’ve taken all my cars here since I’ve been able to drive. They offer very competitive prices for the various services they provide. They are friendly honest and straight up with you. Ricky, Eddie and Dominic are great and professional guys and I have no problem trusting them with my whips. I’ll keep coming back to get work done here as long as they are around. Thanks Bear and Frame crew!

Great service and better people. Always approachable and clear as to what your car needs. Ask a question, get an honest answer. And always fair pricing. I’ve brought them aftermarket parts and had them installed, or, most recently, align my ’06 jaguar after I had wacked a curb. For $ 50 bucks! Fyi, dealer wanted $ 150 +++. Thanks again guys!

After having a terrible alignment done at another shop, I called Bear Frame and Wheel hoping they would be able to fix this mess. After speaking on the phone with Katie I brought my vehicle in for an alignment and was quickly accommodated and after my vehicle was road tested and aligned, the owner kindly showed me that my lower control arm bushings were on their way out and recommended I change them soon. I was really impressed with the efficiency and honesty that this establishment showed. In the end you honestly get what you pay for, and Bear Frame and Wheel did not disappoint, I will definitely be coming back for all my future suspension repairs and alignments.

good work, good prices, friendly staff, right next to a burger place, enjoy a char-​burger while your car gets fixed, will continue to bring my cars here, would recommend

Came in to get an alignment on a lifted 06 Chevy 2500HD and it turned out the idler arm and pitman arm were in bad shape. Ugh! Timing was horrible! But I had to get it fixed and Rick left my truck running like a champ!
I recommend getting the parts from your neighborhood auto shop as they may be cheaper.
Anyway the job was done and done well, no complaints. I’ll be recommending this shop to my other 4X4 buddies and I’ll be sure to be back for all my trucks lifted needs!

iam so happy that my truck alignment is now fixed. mr rick personally worked on truck and now i feel safe on the road. i will always keep recommending all my friends to stop by bear frame. so they could all get their brakes and oil changed and other stuff if need. 1~10 i give them a 10. 100% satisfied. highly recommend bear frame shop. w

Great recommendation from my Brother-​in Law. Friendly staff. They fixed only what was needed, with no pressure to up-​sale. I will use them in the future!

Almost 2 months later and the paint is still on my tires. Not good bear and frame… Not good.

Came into here for an alignment and was met with Katie. She was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. They work very efficient and my truck felt 100x better. Definitely will be back for future work

I took my 2004 Civic in for a front end alignment– The owner had one of his folks work on it.
After the so call alignment, my Civic drifted to the right. I turned around and drove in and had the mgr /​owner check. He takes a test drive and comes back — it’s ok… oh ya sure I thought. Being that I did not want to make a scene. I left and ended up at Vtech in Diamond Bar. I explained my concern and I mentioned that I just had it done at Bear & Wheel. They asked me ‘IF’ Bear uses measuring tape (old style and not always accurate) or did they actually aling ALL four wheels… as all the wheels had to line up vs the rear is off to the right or left of the front. …I mentioned no. They used a measuring tap only on the front. They showed and explained the difference of utilizing an electronic alignment system– this time– ALL for wheels and it tracks straight now… I wanted to save a little $ by going to Bear as original quote was $ 15 lower and ended up spending more by wasting it on the BAD job that Bear Alignment did. I guess Like they say, you get what you pay for. I feel sorry for all those unsuspecting customers that think alignment is only deals with the front end of the car… as their car could be going down the street sideways… wasting their tires and fuel.

These are the best guys around for alignments. Don’t trust anywhere else. I took my Ranger to the dealer 6 times to fix the alignment which they couldn’t do and charged me $ 400. I finally went to Bear and they replaced the part necessary and aligned it perfectly for $ 60.

Took my 08 Sierra for brakes. They were really busy when I got there but they were on top of everything. I had to leave my truck for a few hours but Katie kept me updated on the status of my truck during the day. They do great work and have great prices. I’ll definitely be going back.

I love the service and their prices. They don’t try to sell you anything you don’t want.

Let me sart by saying I grew up in La Puente and moved away right after elementary school. My wife and I drove through looking for food, I suggested a small hamburger place called G&D Burger and in the process of ordering food, I decided to walk to the neighboring mechanic.
I was greeted by a few mechanics and a very nice young woman named Katie (Not sure of the spelling) in the office. I recently purchased a 1965 Nova that I’m restoring so Katie said I can bring the Nova by for a free inspection. This place has been here all my childhood and after talking to Katie and another mechanic, I come to find out this place has been here since the 70’s and is family owned, let that be an testament to the quality of work this place does.
I brought my Nova in bright and early for an inspection a few days later and was greeted by the owner and father of two of the employees. I knew some of the problems and in my opinion was given a fair and honest estimate. i was quoted well below what i assumed the work would cost and they broke down the work into whats important first. I got my car worked on by a Mechanic named Dominic (Not sure of the spelling) who is the «Chevy guy» at this place. He did OUTSTANDING work and went above and beyond what i had expected. He took care of my car as if it were his own, he further inspect the car beyond chassis and suspension and made small adjustments too.
I will continue to be a customer of Bear Frame & Wheel until they are gone and I am coming back in a few weeks to get the rest of the suspension worked on (2 front shocks, 2 rear shocks & upper bushings). I recommend this place to ANYONE with a classic car in the Southern California area. Please, don’t be fooled by the neighborhood, I know i would have if i didn’t grow up in the area.
