Trailer Repairs
Brakes, bearings, axles and suspension on travel trailers and fifth wheels.
The Work
What we do
Running gear is the part of a trailer most likely to strand you and the part least likely to have been looked at. Bearings and brakes are cheap maintenance; an axle failure at highway speed is not.
- Brake inspection, adjustment and replacement
- Wheel bearings — repack, replace and seal
- Axles, springs, shackles and equalisers
- Slide-out adjustment, timing and motors
- Landing gear, jacks and stabilisers
Sound Familiar?
Signs you need this.
- A hub or wheel noticeably hotter than the others after a run
- Grinding, rumbling or a wheel that wobbles
- The trailer pushes on braking, or brakes pull to one side
- Uneven tyre wear across an axle
- The trailer sits low or leans on one corner
Any of these and it’s worth a call — (385) 476-1380. We come to you.
Common Questions
Straight answers.
- How often should trailer bearings be repacked?
- Roughly every 12,000 miles or once a year. A hot hub after a drive is the warning sign that shouldn't wait — heat means the bearing is already failing, and the next stage is losing the wheel.
- My trailer brakes feel weak. Is that the controller or the trailer?
- It can be either, which is why it's worth measuring rather than replacing. We check the magnets, shoes, drums and wiring on the trailer, and the output from the controller, so you're not buying a new controller for a wiring fault.
- Can you replace an axle on site?
- In many cases yes, depending on the trailer, the damage and where it's parked. We'll tell you honestly if it's a job that needs a shop.
