Do they have a website?
What is it? Do they do custom work, or do they just carry other manufactures' stuff?
Do they have stuff for a variety of vehicles, or just trucks?
Thanks-
Ryan

They carry other peoples stuff. Inside it did not look much different than 4 Wheel Parts. They opened with in the last month and therefore will not find them listed in the phone book. I did not ask if they do custom work. There was a sign inside the store about being part of a nationwide chain of stores.

I forgot, they can get stuff for a variety of vehicles.

Yeah, I have actually yet to see the inside of the store, but I plan on checking it out soon (especially since my truck is supposed to be oging in there in a few days). They seem really good to deal with over the phone and I've shared a lot of emails with them as well. Really pleasant folks. Happy to have the RMFTC folks associated with them, at least from what I can tell.

I stopped by the store today and met Chris and Paula, and the installer whos name I can't remember. All real nice folks, really willing to work with you to get things the way you want it done. Their shop was pretty impressive too. That and they have a cool dog that hangs out at the store and provides loves, LOL.
I think they will be getting my business from here on out, even if it is a bit out of my way.

I agree, even though they are about 30 or 40 miles away and 4 Wheel Parts is about 5, I like dealing with Off Road Innovations much better. They called me yesterday to let me know my stuff came in that I ordered Saturday and originally had planned on having Cory help install. I asked them how much to install out of curiosity, and their price was so low I decided to let them do it.

While I was there in the lobby talking with Chris, Paula gets a call from someone wanting a suspension lift and install. She looks at the book rate, says its $600 to install, Chris overhears and says "hang on a sec, what lift is it?", she tells him and he says "naw, we can do that for $500".
Just gives you warm fuzzies.

As for Off Road Innovations Cenntenial having their own website I don't know if there is one, but for Off Road Innovations itself...go to offroadinc.net (http://www.offroadinc.net). It's a "you own the store, they own the name" kind of place. I've seen ad's in magazines (4wheel & off-road, four wheeler, etc.) that advertised about starting up your own shop kind of a thing.

For people like Walking Eagle there is a place up north that might be closer. The address is: 555 Alter Street, Unit No 19C Broomfield, Colorado and the phone number is: 303-410-0802.

yeah, I saw it as kind of a franchise thing, which I'm ok with... The one in north doesn't give us the discounts, but it is near my work and I may swing by to talk to them someday about it.

Tray

10-19-2004, 12:51 PM

I think with the # of people who live so much closer to the North one, if they gave a similar discount, they'd see quite a bit of business.

Do they do custom work, or do they just carry other manufactures' stuff?

I asked them about doing custom rock sliders, but they said for liability reasons they do not do custom work. They do know people who do custom work, who they can recommend.

Tray

11-03-2004, 02:51 PM

Sliders won't help when you get high centered again.

My intention for rock sliders is not have helped me on Saxon Mt. They would not have helped.

They would have been good to have on Slaughterhouse.

I wanted to say thanks to Matt for introducing Off-road Innovations to us here at RMFTC. I went down there this morning and talked with them about a few things. They were really pleasant to work with and went out of their way to answer questions. They beat 4 Wheel Parts price even with 4 Wheel Parts 10% off this weekend sale, and that was before the 10% off they gave me for being a member of RMFTC.

For me it's kind of a long drive, but they made the trip worth it. The best way to get there is take the Araphoe exit off of I 25 and go east for about 4 miles to Jordan Rd. There will be Centennial Medical Center on your right just before Jordan Rd. Take a right on Jordan Rd. for about 1 mile and Off-Road Innovations will be on your right.

PLEASE PLEASE if you go to this store I know this one is out of the way but am PERSONLY good friends with the store Owner Darren Castein.

He owns the ORI BROOMFILD

i trust his work 110% time more then the centennial shop. Dont get me wrong Centennial is a good shop BUT darren is a good friend of mine and i sit there and watch him custom fab damn near EVERYTHING. He also knows of the club through me cause I am always bugging him about it.

So please if you need help with something call this man up!!!

LMAO

This is a very old thread. I want to make it very clear. There are two different ORI stores. The one down south in Centennial, which is the one this thread refers to, lost my business shortly after this thread started when they wrecked my truck running into the garage wall destroying my tailgate, bumper, and bending the truck bed.

I do strongly support the ORI in Broomfield where I have been many times with the truck to have a lot of work done.

so wait...the centennial shop is the one with the cool dog that matt got the warm and fuzzies over? i am lost. I think we should start a locked thread reviews of specific shops, ratings, and reasons they should get our business. just an idea
This should not be to hard to follow. It's not like it's in Japanese or something. If confused, read slower. :flipoff2:

N E WHO the centennial shop Does have the cool dog.

But my buddy darrens shop (granted i am sorry has a lot of mid 20's guys using the bays running around beating eachother for pure amusement) is soley run litterly single handedly by Darren.

When I get a chance I come in on my days off and help him with paper work, or book work or with anything i can.

I love his shop to. Granted the display floor doesn't have as much as the one down here BUT darren will bend over backwards to help you out if he can.

Then centennial shop droped my old roomates jeep litterly right off the lift...

Never heard of that happening ANYWERE.....

thats why my buddy Eric, same one who drives Shawns old PSD, and I are doing all the work to my trucks, he has a heavy equipment truck for his work (he works on Case) and he said he'd come over and we'd bust the lift out in a weekend, soon as I get to getting my lift.

I remember this fella back in 1993 when I first started working at dealership in dallas Tx, he had a brand new ext cab F150 XLT in that perty blue sitting up there on the hoist, was not stable at all and he was trying to replace radius arm bushing, had a big ol cheater bar on there wobbling the truck back and forth so hard I thought a hurricane came through lol. well another tech told him to reset the truck it was gonna fall, and this fella (he was viet namese) said "OH! it not gonna faww" well about 5 minutes later I heard BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! and everyone was running for their lives!! the four arms popped out one at a time the cab fell on the front and bed on the rear, bunched up the rockers on all four corners lol
luckily the cab caught the truck or that guy would have been another grease stain on the floor
