These guys literally saved my life!!! It was 5 degrees outside mid December and my truck blew an antifreeze hose! I was stuck on the side of the road with my truck shut off freezing and they came out on a timely fashion. He diagnosed the problem very quickly and was able to get a new hose put on my truck. He filled my antifreeze back up then tested it to be sure the truck was running properly. I would definitely recommend these guys for any work needed on your big truck.!!
Custead Heavy Truck & Equipment LLC Deserve this 5 star review. I can not thank them enough for the service they provided. My transmission went out in my work van. They knew I was very busy and needed to get it back on the road. They had a brand new transmission replaced within a week of me breaking down. My vehicle is driving amazing. Their whole crew is very knowledgeable and take a lot of pride in what they do to service and repair all aspects of your vehicle and equipment. Thank you!!
I started using Custards heavy truck repair about three months ago. They always seem to go above and beyond and get your truck fixed Within a reasonable amount of time. This last service I took it in because I had a ton of black crap in my fuel filters a check engine light on an ABS light on. I figured it would take two days to get it all done. They had it done within 24 hours.. Keep up the work you definitely earned a new full-time customer.
They have done a great deal of work for me already and there's a reason why I keep going back with repairs that I can't handle myself, they get the job done as quickly as they can without compromising quality. They will always treat you fairly.
