Hi-Rail Truck Repair in Panama City, FL
Panama City Mobile Mechanic handles hi-rail truck repair for the railroad maintenance vehicles that run the rails across the Florida panhandle. A hi-rail truck is part road truck and part rail vehicle, and when either side breaks it stops the crew. We bring the rail gear, hydraulic, and road system repair to your hi-rail fleet on site.
Rail Gear Repair and Adjustment
The rail gear is the part that makes the truck a hi-rail, and it takes the most abuse. We repair the front and rear guide wheel assemblies, the rail wheel bearings, the axles, and the flanges that keep the truck on the rail. We handle the lifting cylinders and the hydraulic valves that raise and lower the gear. A rail gear that will not drop or will not lift strands the truck, and we fix it where it sits.
Hydraulic and Air Systems for Hi-Rail
The rail side runs on hydraulics and air. We service the hydraulic pump, the control valve, the lift cylinders, and the hoses that operate the rail gear. We also handle the rail brake air system, the gladhands, and the brake cylinders that stop the truck on the rail. A leak in the hydraulic or air system takes the rail side out of service, and we trace it and repair it on site.
Road Side Drivetrain and Brakes
Because a hi-rail rolls on the highway too, we service the road side just like any fleet truck. The engine, the transmission, the road brakes, the steering, and the lighting all need upkeep. We handle the clutch service, the brake work, and the drivetrain repair that keeps the truck road legal between rail sites. One call covers both sides of the truck.
