Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Riverton from your shop?
Riverton is about 15 miles west of our shop at 8443 E 7th St A, Joplin, MO 64801, usually around a 20-minute drive.Why do I smell diesel fuel around my truck?
A fuel smell can come from a leaking tank, a loose or damaged fuel cap, cracked fuel lines, or a leaking fitting. Check for wet spots or drips and have the source repaired, since leaking fuel is both wasteful and a hazard.Why does my steer axle creak when I turn the wheel?
Creaking when turning often comes from dry or worn king pins or thrust bearings. Greasing may quiet it temporarily, but persistent noise usually means the components need inspection and repair.How can I check my trailer suspension before a trip?
Walk around the trailer and look for leaning or uneven ride height, cracked or bulging air springs, damaged hangers, and loose U-bolts. On sliding tandems, confirm the slider pins are fully locked.Do you serve nearby towns like Galena and Baxter Springs?
Yes. Our service area includes Riverton and surrounding communities, including Galena, Baxter Springs, and Columbus.
