Placitas UTV Repair & Side-by-Side Shop | Polaris RZR & Can-Am X3

Placitas UTV shop & side-by-side repair

From Polaris RZRs to Can-Am X3s, NM UTV is the Placitas UTV repair option built around side-by-sides. We are a dedicated UTV shop in Socorro with certified mechanics, quick turnaround and pickup and delivery from Placitas.

Around Placitas and the Albuquerque metro, riding usually means sandy mesas, rocky washes and mountain trails. Metro-area machines tend to rack up a lot of short, hard rides in sand and rock. We see plenty of belt failures, clutch wear, bent radius rods, worn ball joints, wheel bearing failures and audio and lighting upgrades from the Albuquerque area.

UTV services for Placitas riders

We do everything from installing new radios to engine work, engine swaps, suspension work, new tires and wheels, belt installations and crash repairs.

Engine repair & rebuilds

From a simple no-start to a complete bottom-end rebuild, we handle side-by-side engine work in house.

Engine swaps

When a rebuild does not make sense, an engine swap can get your machine back on the trail faster and for less.

Suspension work

Rocks, ruts and desert washes are hard on suspension.

Belt installation & clutch service

A blown belt is the most common reason a side-by-side gets stranded.

New tires & wheels

The right tires make a huge difference on New Mexico rocks and sand.

Crash repairs

Rollovers and crashes happen.

Radio & stereo installs

We install new radios, stereos, sound bars, speakers, amps and helmet intercom systems with clean wiring that holds up to dust, heat and vibration..
