Special Feature: Cream of the Crop
Dynamic Diesel is in 2010 Top 10 Automotive Repair Websites
Courtesy of AutoInc.
One thing is certain: Shop owners are becoming more Web-savvy each year,
and judging their online efforts is becoming tougher as a result.
As usual, we were overwhelmed by the number of entries we received this year for AutoInc.'s 12th annual Top 10 Automotive Repair Web Sites awards. But our judges persevered, though we heard quite a few "This is a lot harder than I thought it would be" comments. It's apparent that today's automotive repair shop owners have embraced the marketing power of the Internet.
Using last year's judging model, our entrants were evaluated by a panel of judges from different disciplines and walks of life. Because of the number of nominations, each Web site was evaluated by three judges. Our judges used set guidelines and a scoring sheet to ...read more |

What drivers might not realize is that virtually any pothole, curb or other road hazard can take a nasty toll on a vehicle's steering and suspension system. In fact, just one impact can jar the RV out of alignment and potentially damage safety-critical chassis parts.
Sure signs that your RV's steering and suspension needs to be realigned, and could require replacement of one or more steering and suspension parts include:
• Tail Wagging the Dog (Rear End does not follow the Front end)
• Steering wheel off-center
• Loose steering

• Steering wander (difficulty holding the vehicle on a consistent path)
• A pull to either side
• Chassis vibration at certain speeds
• Increased road-induced noise, vibration or harshness
• Uneven tire wear
A proper alignment requires replacement of any worn or damaged components within the steering and suspension system. These parts can affect your driving safety, so take your professional technician's service recommendation very seriously...read more |

Snohomish, Wash. — In an ever-expanding world of specialization, Dynamic Diesel and BEAR Alignment Services is indeed a specialist, said Co-Owner Lindsay “Lin” Hill, who operates the business with his wife, Lorene.
“It’s a family business,” said Lorene Hill, who handles a variety of duties at the business. Of the nine employees at the firm, she said five were family members, including the couple’s son, Steve, who is the lead diagnostician; daughter Nicole Nelson who handles bookkeeping; and her husband, Jeff, is a technician who also handles the firm’s computer networking.

As diesel cars, trucks and motorhomes become more sophisticated, the mechanical problems that occur become tougher to diagnose, requiring highly trained technicians and expensive equipment. By making that investment in training and equipment, Dynamic Diesel and BEAR Alignment of Snohomish has become a business success story.
Lorene and Lindsay (Lin) Hill started the company with a $10,000 loan on a truck in 1992 and have built it into a business that generated more than $1.2 million last year.
Lin Hill entered the business with an extensive background in automotive parts and diesel engines. He managed auto parts stores and led a crew that did diesel marine repairs on vessels up and down the West Coast.
Tired of the travel, he decided to open a repair shop with a diesel specialty. From a small shop in Lynnwood, Dynamic Diesel moved to much larger quarters in Snohomish in 2002 and expanded by acquiring BEAR alignment, a highly regarded 55-year-old Everett company.
Steven Bear, the grandson of the founder of the BEAR alignment system, helped make the expansion a success by bringing...read more |
