Axle & Suspension Servicing

YOUR TRAILER'S SUSPENSION IS DESIGNED TO HANDLE THE RATED LOAD THE TRAILER CAN HAUL. THE TRAILER'S SPRINGS, SHACKLES AND SPRING BUSHINGS PLAY A VITAL ROLE
IN HANDLING.

A SIMPLE WORN BUSHING CAN CAUSE AXLE WALK. AXLE WALK CAN CAUSE PREMATURE TIRE WEAR AND PUT THE TRAILERS SUSPENSION IN A BIND.

THE FABSHOP INSPECTS YOUR ENTIRE SUSPENSION FOR CRACKS, BROKEN WELDS, BENT U-BOLTS & ANY OTHER BRACKETRY FOR WEAR. WE THEN REPAIR YOUR TRAILERS SUSPENSION TO LIKE NEW CONDITION.

Trailer Couplers & Jacks

A BENT TONGUE JACK OR WORN TRAILER COUPLER CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR DAMAGE YOUR VEHICLE.

THE FABSHOP CAN REPLACE YOUR TRAILER COUPLER OR TONGUE JACK. IF YOUR TRAILER TONGUE IS DAMAGED OR BENT, WE CAN REPLACE IT AS WELL. WE SERVICE BOTH BOLT ON OR WELDED APPLICATIONS.

SAFETY CHAINS ARE ANOTHER OVERLOOKED ITEM ON YOUR TRAILER. DID YOU KNOW THAT YOUR SAFETY CHAINS CAN NOT LEGALLY BE WELDED? THE FABSHOP CAN MOUNT YOUR NEW SAFETY CHAINS THE PROPER WAY.

Wiring/Custom Modifications

WORN OR DAMAGED TRAILER WIRING CAN CAUSE YOUR TRAILER LIGHTS OR BRAKES NOT TO WORK. UNCHECKED WIRING CAN CAUSE CORROSION BUILD-UP, BAD GROUNDING AND THE POSSIBILITY OF A TRAFFIC TICKET.

THE FABSHOP CAN REPAIR YOUR EXISTING WIRING (IF ABLE) OR REWIRE YOUR TRAILER WITH ALL NEW CONNECTIONS AND WIRING HARNESSES.

WE CAN ALSO PERFORM MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR EXISTING TRAILER. OUR TEAM CAN CUSTOM DESIGN ANY TYPE OF TRAILER YOU MAY WANT TO FIT YOUR NEEDS.

Bearing Servicing

THE PROPER SERVICING OF WHEEL BEARINGS IS ESSENTIAL TO TRAILER AXLE AND TRAILER HUB LIFE.

SEIZED WHEEL BEARINGS, DUE TO LACK OF PROPER MAINTENANCE, CAN LEAD TO TRAILER AXLE AND TRAILER HUB FAILURE. THIS FAILURE CAN LEAD TO ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY LOSING A WHEEL.

AT THE FABSHOP, WE CLEAN AND FLUSH OUT ALL OF THE OLD GREASE. WE THEN INSPECT YOUR BEARINGS AND RACES FOR WEAR. IF NEW BEARINGS ARE NEEDED, WE INSTALL NEW BEARINGS, RACES, AND THEN REPACK YOUR WHEEL BEARINGS WITH WATER RESISTANT HI-TEMP SYNTHETIC GREASE.

Brake Servicing

TRAILERS WITH BRAKES WHETHER ELECTRIC OR HYDRAULIC NEED TO BE MAINTAINED. PROPER BRAKE ADJUSTMENT AND CORRECT BRAKE HARWARE ARE ESSENTIAL TO PROPERLY STOP YOUR TRAILER. BRAKE SHOES OR PADS SHOULD NOT BE CRACKED OR CONTAMINATED.

THE FABSHOP KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS ALL TRAILER BRAKE SYSTEMS. WE NEVER TAKE SHORTCUTS WHEN IT COMES TO MAINTAINING YOUR TRAILERS BRAKES. WE REPLACE THE ENTIRE BACKING PLATE WITH ALL NEW BRAKES AND HARDWARE WHEN SERVICING IS REQUIRED.

WHEN A SERVICE IS PERFORMED ON A ELECTRIC OR HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEM, WE CAREFULLY EXAMINE YOUR BRAKE DRUMS FOR HEAT DAMAGE AND REPLACE PARTS AS NECESSARY.
