Hubs, Seals, Studs, & Nuts
A wheel hub motor, also referred to as a wheel motor, is an electric motor incorporated into the wheel hub and drives it directly. You can have a safer and smoother ride today by replacing your warped and worn out wheel hubs.

Properly working seals provide oil and grease sealing - offering enhanced performance in a wide range of temperatures and environments. Worn out or warped seals allow external contaminants to enter the bearing unit or let lubricant escape from the unit which ultimately leads to premature failure of the bearing unit. To keep contaminants out and retain lubricant in the bearings, have the seals replaced with new ones.

Studs are the threaded fasteners that hold on the wheels of your truck. The wheel studs are permanently mounted on the wheel hub through the brake disk or brake drum. To secure the wheel, nuts (lug nuts) are fastened over the stud. Stripped wheel studs can be quite dangerous and damaged studs should be replaced immediately with high quality ones.

Pre-Purchase Inspections
Are you planning to buy a new vehicle? Don't take chances. Be confident about the car you are buying and have a pre-purchase inspection on the vehicle. A pre-purchase inspection involves examining the vehicle's condition to ensure it is worth buying. Our pre-purchase inspections will allow you to make an informed decision and peace of mind when you buy your next used car.

Pre-Trip Inspection
A pre-trip check up can make the difference between a safe trip and one that ends in tragedy. This inspection aims at looking for possible defects and potential mechanical problems that could cause disaster. Before embarking on your trip make sure your vehicle is fully inspected for safety to and from your destination.

Wheel Bearings
Wheel bearings are found inside the wheels, allowing them to spin freely, and are connected to the brake system. They can be worn down over time causing vibrating suspension and noisy rubbing when the vehicle is on the road. If they break completely the vehicle will become extremely difficult to control and very unsafe to drive. Replacement intervals for wheel bearings vary greatly, so leaks for leaks and wear periodically.
