Fleet truck service

Sunday, April 4, 2010

Looks like this week was fleet truck service week at Reliable! Business must be picking up because I once again had two of the same type vehicles in the shop at once. Diamond Excavating brought in a 04 Chevy 3500 dump truck with a Duramax and C and H Landscaping brought in a 06 GMC 3500 dump truck with a Duramax.

Diamond Excavating had braking issues with their Duramax dump truck. Very soft pedal. We replaced the master cylinder and all was well in the truck. Diamond has been keeping a stead flow of vehicles through my shop, I am sure we will be seeing them again soon.

C and H Landscaping did not get off so easily sadly. They had a bearing go out in the rear end and that ended up chewing up the spindle that holds the wheels on the axle. Thankfully the wheels never fell off and no injuries happened from this! The bearing did chew up the spindle and the threads holding on the bearings though. We were able to get the threads back in shape on that spindle, but that was quite a job.
