Total Team Work Turnaround

This was a complete tear down, they replaced every pin and bolt on the machine. They replaced all hydraulic hoses, fittings and repacking numerous cylinders. Once reassembly was completed we dropped it off for a fresh coat of paint, then shipped to our customer. This machine looks brand new off the line and ready to be put into service by our customer. We couldn't be prouder of our techs for delivering such speed and skill on this project! The Honor Roll:
