Eaton has named Truck Gears Inc. of Los Alamitos, Calif. as an Eaton Authorized Rebuilder. Truck Gears, Inc. has been in business for 39 years, currently employs 35 people and recently opened a second Southern California location in South Gate.
“Truck Gears Inc. has a very well established reputation as a local provider of exceptional customer service and quality products,” said Bill Fouch, product manager, aftermarket transmission products, Eaton. “Adding Truck Gears Inc. to the Authorized Rebuilder program is a natural fit.”
The Eaton Authorized Rebuilder program, introduced in 2013, gives fleets and owner operators an opportunity to purchase locally rebuilt transmissions from authorized outlets which meet all of Eaton’s re-use and rebuild requirements. With the addition of Truck Gears, Eaton now has six Authorized Rebuilders in North America to service its products. Other Eaton Authorized Rebuilders are Power Train of Indianapolis, Ind.; TransAxle of Cinnaminson, N.J.; Drivetrain Services of Bensonville, Ill.; Pacific Truck of Edmonton, Alberta, and Chalk’s Truck Parts of Houston, Texas. To be recognized as an Authorized Rebuilder, companies are required to complete an in-depth review of their rebuilding processes, increase their technical and sales training, and achieve an annual certification for the program, according to Eaton.
