Short story. My father left me his 2000 F250 SD 7.3L when he passed a few years ago. My mom was attached to the truck so i was not able to take ownership of it and for good reason. 5 years later, i took the truck into ownership and realized it needed more work than i was prepared to do myself. I asked around at work and a few people mentioned SMA diesel…. Word of mouth states was this place is the best in the upstate. I wanted my father’s truck to be in the best hands. I called, got my appointment, and showed up. Instantly, Paige made me feel like i was family…When Sam called, he broke down the issues line by line, quoted me a price, and the end price was right there close to what he quoted. I also had a chance to speak with Sam face to face, and he, too, made me feel like we’ve known each other for years. Now, as far as my fathers truck, I’m very satisfied with the job performed, and from this day forward, i will also tell people that for all your power stroke needs, SMA Diesel is where you want to be. Great family owned shop…..You show up already family. 5 stars!!!!! Thanks SMA!

I try to do most my work myself but I had a problem that I couldn’t figure out and one I overlooked. Sam diagnosed my truck same day and found the issues right away. FYI… be aware of fake parts online even if they claim OEM and sealed for a “deal”. Lesson learned for me. I admit I was a little surprised at the estimate when he called - I was worried never dealing with them before, and I had no idea the level of service I was about to receive. When I go pick up my truck it’s clean. They pressure cleaned the engine too - it looks brand new. Sam did work that went above my problem and fixed some maintenance issues he saw while diving in. The bill came in below his estimate. If you are looking for the lowest bidder or wanting to come out cheap take your truck to Bubba down the road for repair with China parts. You are going to get what you pay for. I put Sam’s price and service against any dealership. He uses only real OEM parts and if he sees something else wrong he is going to fix it. It sure is nice to call them and actually get to talk to a real person and not a prompt or hold. Paige was super nice and informative. I got the feeling they wanted my business and cared about customer satisfaction. When I picked up my truck Sam himself stopped working and spoke with me about my issues. We had a good conversation and he even gave me recommendations for a scan tool. Good folks, highly recommend!

Sam and the crew have went above and beyond for me since day one, even when he didn’t know me. He has done major repairs on my 2019 ford dually and worked on my sons 7.3 truck. He has put in the same effort on my sons $4000 truck as he has done on my $90,000 dually. The shop takes pride in everything, no matter if it’s doing an oil change or doing an engine swap. There’s no way that I would ever own another diesel if this shop wasn’t around. If you have a Ford powerstroke, this is the only shop that you need to know. Period!Services: Engine repair

Got my first Powerstroke recently. Sam did a great job educating me about my new Powerstroke and how to take care of it. Paige is very friendly and does a great job answering my questions. Sam is a very knowledgeable mechanic and I wouldn’t trust anyone else my Powerstroke. They have done all the routine maintenance on my truck and they have also installed a 60 gallon fuel tank, replaced some suspension components, intercooler piping, and a cold air intake on my 13 F250. Great people to work with.

SMA is where I always go and always will go for my 6.0. They've done my head gaskets and studs, front end rebuild, and a bunch more work to my truck, and now it's better than it's ever been.

Highly recommend SMA! They know there stuff! We took our 2004 Ford 250 SD to get repaired, retuned, and serviced. They did an excellent job and keep us updated with everything going on. And let me tell you this truck had some problems lol. They were able to fix everything and also addressed and fixed others things that was found. It was well worth the 1 hour and 45 min drive to get the truck repaired. SMA will be the only one working on this truck if ever needed. ?

I went there and asked them for a price on swapping out a turbo because I decided to upgrade my 1995 7.3 from a stock turbo to KC stage one turbo for towing purposes they couldn’t give me a price they explained they needed to do diagnostics on it to see what’s wrong with my current turbo they didn’t listen to me nothing was wrong with my current turbo other than it’s 27 years old and I wanted more power for pulling they couldn’t tell me anything about price other than they will charge me to look everything over and let me know if I need a new turbo. I already bought the new turbo and it want in the box in the truck. If I wanted service like this I would have just taken it to the ford dealership. I’m sorry I’m not gonna just turn someone lose with a unknown budget to do needles things. See the OBS 7.3s unlike all the newer powerstrokes are easy to work on and troubleshoot. So if you have a newer style truck that needs the cab removed to get to things than you might be stuck using them. But if you have a 1994.5-2003 7.3 take it to Wesley Painter on old race track road Gaffney SC he’s a powerstroke technician with 25 years experience on these motors .
