From single owner-driver prime movers to 20-truck civil and freight fleets. We deliver honest diagnostics, scheduled logbook servicing, Certificates of Inspection (COI) for trucks and heavy trailers, clutch and gearbox rebuilds, and 24/7 roadside breakdown response across Brisbane, Ipswich, and South East Queensland.
Your truck is your sole livelihood. If it's sitting parked at a dealership waiting two weeks for a slot, you aren't earning. We offer direct communication with the mechanic, fast turnaround times, and fair quotes with zero inflated markup.
Heavy-duty body repairs, PTO pumps, blown hydraulic tipping rams and chassis cracks. We know how rough civil site work is on gear and we fix it to stay fixed in the dirt.
Running 3 to 25 rigid or semi-trailers? We set up scheduled preventative maintenance, logbook servicing, brake relines, and after-hours repairs so your transport contracts never miss delivery windows.
Whether you pull into our Darra workshop or flag our service ute down on the side of the highway, here is what our qualified diesel fitters take care of daily.
Comprehensive A, B, and C service schedules for prime movers, rigid trucks, and trailers. We change oils, inspect drivelines, grease kingpins, check hub seals, and record full audit reports that protect your manufacturer warranty.
Heavy clutches take immense abuse under load. We handle clutch adjustments, heavy pressure plate swaps, flywheel grinding, and full rebuilds on Eaton Fuller Roadranger, Allison automatics, and European automated manuals.
When an engine drops a cylinder or blows oil, you need precise diagnostic scan tools to avoid guessing. We perform in-frame and out-of-frame rebuilds on Cummins (ISX, X15), Detroit (DD15, Series 60), CAT, Mack, and Isuzu diesels.
Air leaks and worn s-cams will fail an inspection and risk driver safety on the range. We repair brake boosters, replace drum shoes and disc pads, trace stubborn pneumatic air leaks, and rebush air-bag or leaf spring suspensions.
Driving a truck in Queensland without cold A/C is unbearable. Our qualified auto electrical specialists fix cab air conditioning compressors, condenser leaks, and trace broken CAN-bus wiring harnesses, starters, and alternators.
Mobile boilermaking, chassis crack repairs, tipper body work and body modifications, done on site or in our Darra workshop. We fix it properly so it stays fixed.
Major planned overhauls belong in a clean, undercover workshop. Unexpected breakdowns get sorted wherever your truck pulled over.
Located with straightforward heavy vehicle access off the main transport routes in Darra. High-clearance bays designed for semi-trailers, B-doubles, and rigid trucks.
When a prime mover derates into limp mode on the highway or blows an air line at a logistics depot, calling a float truck costs an arm and a leg. We bring the workshop to your steer tyre.
American heavy iron, Japanese delivery cab-overs, or European prime movers. We carry the software and filter stock for all of them.
When you call us or request a callback, you speak directly with Lachy or Jordan. We get the make, model, problem symptoms, and location so our fitters roll up prepared.
We plug in diagnostic tools or run physical checks, explain what failed, and give you a transparent quote before turning big bolts. No surprise parts or padded workshop fees.
Repairs are carried out by trade-qualified diesel mechanics and tested under real operating temperatures. Your rig is handed back roadworthy and ready to generate revenue.
Let us know what your truck needs and whether you want to drop it at our Darra workshop or need a mobile ute sent out.

No, it will not. We strictly adhere to manufacturer service schedules, use OEM or warranty-approved fluids and filters, and stamp your logbooks. You maintain full warranty protection while paying honest trade rates instead of dealership premiums.
Yes. We understand your rigs are scheduled on routes Monday through Friday. We regularly coordinate fleet servicing on Friday afternoons, Saturdays, or scheduled evenings to ensure your trucks are ready for Monday morning shifts.
Our workshop is conveniently located in Darra, QLD, right near the major logistics transport corridors of the Ipswich Motorway and Centenary Highway. We have wide street access, high-clearance bays, and room for heavy combinations.
We operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Response time depends on traffic and your exact location within our ~40km+ radius across Brisbane, Ipswich, or the Gold Coast, but our service utes are always prepped to dispatch immediately for roadside emergencies.
