Motor City Trailer Repair — Equipment Trailer Repair & Maintenance

Motor City Trailer Repair provides dependable equipment trailer repair for trailer owners in Wixom. We commonly address bent tongues, damaged frames, axle failures, worn suspension components, flooring rot, and electrical faults after heavy use or minor incidents. Michigan winters and road salt increase corrosion and bearing wear, while frequent towing for landscaping, construction, and hauling equipment accelerates fatigue on couplers and lights. Our approach combines thorough inspections with practical repairs tailored to towing use cases so equipment trailers leave our shop safe and ready for work or transport.

Service overview

Our equipment trailer repair service is built around a detailed diagnostic followed by targeted structural and mechanical work. We inspect and correct frame alignment, perform precision welding and plate reinforcement, and fabricate replacement sections when necessary. Axle and hub repairs include bearing replacement, seal installation, spindle inspection, and axle re-centering. Suspension work covers leaf springs, torsion axles, shackles, and shackle points. We service couplers, safety chains, jacks, ramps, and winch mounts, and we fully evaluate braking systems—electric, hydraulic, and surge types—repairing controllers, magnets, or master cylinders as required. Electrical repairs include socket and harness replacement, lighting restoration, and corrosion-proof connections. For trailer decks we replace and secure wood or metal flooring, reinforce load-bearing areas, and add gussets or custom brackets for specialized equipment. Every repair is finalized with load testing, torque checks, and a documented checklist to verify towing safety and longevity.
