Contact UsServicing
Preventative maintenance is always cheaper than waiting until your truck needs repairs, in the long run. Your truck works much harder and for much longer than any car, so we would strongly recommend you consider setting up a service schedule.
It’s much better to have your rig out of action for a few hours, on a set schedule you can plan around, than to have it breakdown randomly, and be out of commission for days.
Here at Grinters Mechanical, our expert technicians can provide servicing for all:
- Diesel Heavy Vehicles
- Plant And Equipment
- Light And Heavy Commercial Vehicles
- Trailers And Dollies
Inspections
If you’re planning on buying a truck, you’re making an investment in your career. We would strongly recommend booking in your potential new vehicle in for a pre-purchase inspection. This way you can know exactly what you’re buying, avoid any nasty surprises, and make an informed decision about your investment.
When you have a particularly long haul trip ahead of you, consider a pre-trip inspection. This way you can discover any flaws in your vehicle, and address them in our workshop, rather than discovering them when you’re out on the road.
Our team can help you with:
- Pre-Purchase Inspections
- Pre-Trip Inspections
- Periodic Check Overs
Brakes
Your brakes are the most important safety feature your vehicle has. Your truck’s brakes also suffer a lot more abuse than a car’s brakes do; they are routinely bringing several tonnes of fast-moving material to a complete stop, multiple times a day.
Here at Grinters Mechanical our expert team of technicians can help you with:
- Air Brake Diagnosis
- Brake System Servicing
- Brake Component Machining
- Brake Hose Repairs
Steering and Suspension
Faults and flaws in your steering and suspension affect handling and ride comfort, causing issues such play in the steering wheel, lean through corners, and squeaking over bumps. Your suspension’s primary job is to control the tyre’s contact with the road surface, so a poor suspension will affect your stopping distance, and can cause issues like burst tyres, broken wheels, and broken suspension parts.
Here at Grinters Mechanical, our skilled team of technicians can help you with:
- Shocks, Springs, Leafs and Struts
- Bushing Replacement
- Power Steering Repairs/Replacement
- Lift Kits and 4wd Upgrades
Clutches & Transmissions
As part of the assembly that transmits power from the engine to the wheels, the transmission is comprised of some of the most intricate and sophisticated machinery in your truck. Due to their complex nature, even minor flaws can quickly escalate into very costly repairs. If you notice an issue with your transmission, we would urge you to have it checked sooner rather than later.
Here at Grinters Mechanical, our skilled team can help you with:
- Servicing
- Repairs & Replacement
- Manual Transmissions
- Automatic Transmissions
- Differentials
- CV Joints

Cooling System
If your truck’s cooling system is malfunctioning, it can cause myriad issues from reduced power output and fuel efficiency, all the way through to reduced engine lifespan due to overheating and leaking coolant.
If these problems are left untreated for long enough, they will render your truck immobile, with extremely costly repairs needed to fix it. So if you notice your truck is starting to run a little hot, don’t put it off, have it checked as soon as you can. Annually cleaning your radiator and charge air cooler out can reduce the risk of overheating issues through the hot summer months.
