Steering Gearbox Repair & Rebuilds: We fix loose or binding steering to restore handling and safety.

Tandem Axle Alignment: We make sure all axles are properly aligned to prevent trailer drift and tire scrubbing.

Lisa T.

Delivery Driver

FAQs

For trucks carrying heavy freight on I-95, Route 60 and Richmond’s industrial areas, we recommend brake pad replacements every 30,000–50,000 miles. Frequent stops and steep grades will wear pads faster, so regular inspections will prevent long braking distances.

If your truck is bouncing, wearing uneven tires or drifting on Richmond’s pothole filled roads, your suspension may need shock or leaf spring replacement. Ignoring these signs will cause premature tire and axle damage.

Yes! Misaligned will cause uneven tire wear and increased rolling resistance which can reduce fuel efficiency by up to 10%, especially when hauling loads through Broad Street traffic and the Port of Richmond. A professional alignment every 6 months will improve handling and fuel savings.

Our DOT brake inspections check air brake pressure, slack adjusters, rotors, drums and ABS systems to make sure you comply with Virginia DOT regulations. We’ve helped hundreds of Richmond truckers pass inspections with no fines or violations.

If your steering feels loose, stiff or unresponsive while driving through Richmond’s city streets and industrial areas, it may mean tie rods, ball joints or power steering pump are worn out. We diagnose and fix these issues before they cause handling failures.

Yes! We offer 24/7 emergency roadside brake and suspension repairs in Richmond, Henrico, Chesterfield and Glen Allen. If you experience sudden brake failure, air suspension leak or unsafe handling, our mobile mechanics will get you back on the road fast.

Shock and bushing inspections, proper tire pressure and axle alignment will help. We also install heavy duty shocks and reinforced parts for trucks that frequently travel Mechanicsville Turnpike and I-295.
