Two ways this goes. If the deck still rolls, take I-355 down to I-80 and we'll have the part on the bench before you pull in — 50 minutes, and you get a straight diagnosis and a price before anyone touches the truck. If it won't roll, stay with it and call — we come to you in Romeoville, about an hour out. What you don't want is to sit on it: there's no truck parking at exit 263 to sit in, and every hour that deck is parked is freight you're not delivering and a window closing on the other end. Call 224-278-9872 and tell us what it's doing — we'll tell you straight which of the two makes sense.
Two interstates and no city driving until the last mile. Here's the run east, where trucks in Romeoville actually end up stuck, and what happens once you're in the yard.
Romeoville is inside our range — call and we're rolling in about an hour, whether you're shut down in a drop lot off Weber Road, stopped on Route 53, or pulled onto the shoulder of I-355. We come with car-hauler parts on the truck, not just a toolbox.
Hydraulics and fifth wheels are what we're known for, but a truck that came in for a cylinder usually needs brakes, tires or a PM looked at too. We do the whole truck and trailer, so a 50-minute drive covers all of it in one stop instead of splitting your work across three shops.
Deck, hydraulics, fifth wheel, ramps and everything else that makes a hauler a hauler — the work most shops send you away for.
Leaking, drifting or dead cylinders, hoses and lines rebuilt or replaced with the parts already on the shelf.
Repair, repositioning and replacement — the wear that gets missed until it becomes a problem on the highway.
Lights, wiring, alternators and starters traced back to the actual fault instead of parts thrown at it.
Codes read and traced to what's actually causing them, plus OBD and CARB testing when it's time.
Forced regens, DEF dosing valves and aftertreatment faults sorted before the truck derates on you.
Scheduled service with a real inspection attached, so small things get caught while the truck is already stopped.
Pads, shoes, drums, air system and adjustment — inspected honestly and replaced only where it's warranted.
Air bags, shocks, bushings and pins on tractor and trailer, so the load rides right and nothing wears out early.
Cracks, mounts, brackets and deck structure repaired in-house instead of farmed out to another shop.
There are shops closer to Romeoville than we are — that's not the question. The question is whether they stock a hydraulic cylinder or a fifth-wheel part for your deck, or whether you're waiting two days on an order while your load sits. We keep those parts on the shelf and the man who diagnoses your truck spent about ten years driving one. That's the difference 50 minutes buys you.
Diagnosed today, fixed today — same day in most cases, next day at the latest.
The hydraulic, cylinder and fifth-wheel parts most shops have to order are already on the shelf.
Diagnosed by someone who ran car haulers for about ten years, so the real problem gets found the first time.
Explain the problem the way you'd explain it to another driver — in English, Russian, or Spanish.
A straight quote before the work starts, and no parts sold that the truck didn't need.
Minutes off the corridor, so getting to the shop doesn't cost you more time than the repair.
Plenty of these operators passed closer shops to get here, and some never made it in at all — we came to them. Read what they said about the drive being worth it.
My husband came to this shop today right after his trip, around 4 PM on Friday! , in an urgent situation. They took him in immediately and repaired everything within just an hour — very professional and fast. We were also pleasantly surprised by how reasonable the price was. We’re truly grateful for the professionalism, quick service, and overall great experience. Thank you so much! Highly recommend!
Had an electrical problem on one of our car hauler trailers on a Saturday. The guys at Fleet SC said to stop by so they could take a look, they got the driver rolling again in no time. life savers before the long weekend. They didn't over charge or anything, very fair and honest, helpful guys. Will definitely save them for the future.
Great place , professional mechanics, easy in and out , reasonable prices, bilingual customer service ( English, Russian) the company is reliable in all sectors, customer lounge with coffee and snacks. Enjoyed my experience!
