Unique Breakdowns Require Unique Solutions.
We strive to make proper repairs, and in some instances can ‘save the life’ of a piece of equipment. We recently ‘saved the life’ of an auger tractor that otherwise would have destined for the scrap pile, due to a simple needle bearing failure that ruined the differential housing thrust washer surface. We machined a hub to accept a custom cutting tool to create a new thrust washer surface, then a selective thrust washer was installed to obtain the proper gear backlash. This unique repair kept this auger tractor from being retired and has extended its useful life!
VGT & EGR Diesel Delete.
In summer 2020, we completed a VGT & EGR Delete on a 2013 Peterbilt 389 12.9L Paacar. This build was completed in-house for B Frank Trucking and was tuned remotely by Diesel Spec.
Transmission Rebuild.
We recently completed a transmission rebuild on a Chevrolet Diesel 4L 80E that had lost its reverse gear in the cold weather, due to system over-pressure caused by normal wear & tear, blown gaskets, and old age. Corrections were made to the internal workings of the valve body, worn components were re-machined, and new spools were installed. Pressure correction and relief circuits were updated, and high-temperature sealing rings were installed. These specialized repair components are sourced from multiple specialty manufacturers, including Sonnax and Transgo.
