Made in the U.S.A. – Kral Auto Parts, LLC

About
Kral Auto Parts LLC

Kral Auto Parts LLC is a family owned parts outlet established by Jim and Beth Kral.  With the help of their children and parents, Kral Auto Parts LLC has been able to reach its goals of best serving its customers.  We specialize in engineering and manufacturing Exhaust Manifold Bolt Repair Kits for many makes and models of vehicles.

Jim got his start in auto mechanics at age 13 while working with his Dad doing automotive repair in a one-stall garage on his grandparents farm.  After graduating from school, he decided to open his own business and has owned and operated his own auto repair shop since 1989.  The Kral family has a love and passion for the automotive world which shows through running their automotive business to working on their own classic vehicle restoration projects.

Our Exhaust Manifold Bolt Repair Kits are designed and engineered by Jim.  Over the years, he saw many of his customers bring Trucks and SUVs with broken exhaust manifold bolts into his shop for repair.  The traditional repair for this can be very expensive.  Jim felt strongly that there had to be another solution that would save his customers money and eliminate the possibility that the bolts would break again.  The end result are the parts that you see on our website.  Jim installed the first Exhaust Manifold Bolt Repair Bracket on the vehicle of one of his customers in September 2005.  Since then, Kral Auto Parts LLC has been designing, testing, and installing Exhaust Manifold Bolt Repair Brackets for many fitment applications on an ever-growing list of vehicle makes and models.

The QUALITY of our parts is our main priority. We contribute to the local economy by working with local manufacturers and suppliers and are PROUD to say that our parts are MADE in the USA.
