Motor City Trailer Repair — Extendable Flatbed Service & Fabrication

Motor City Trailer Repair provides dependable extendable flatbed repair services for trailer owners in Farmington Hills. Common problems we address include sticking or misaligned sliding decks, bent rails and rollers, worn locking pins, damaged winches, and subframe stress from heavy loads. Michigan winters and road salt accelerate corrosion of moving parts, while frequent towing of equipment and landscaping loads increases wear on telescoping systems. Our team focuses on restoring smooth extension, secure locking, and safe towing performance so trailers are ready for both worksite hauling and weekend transport.

Service overview

Our extendable flatbed repair service begins with a thorough inspection of rails, rollers, locks, frame alignment, axles, and towing hardware. We replace or rebuild worn slide rails, rollers, and bushings; repair or fabricate replacement locking mechanisms and end stops; and rebuild or install winches, cables, and hydraulic or pneumatic extension systems. Frame work can include straightening, gusseting, section welding, and reinforcement plates to restore design load ratings. Brake systems, bearings, hubs, and wiring are tested and repaired as needed, and we provide corrosion treatment and protective coatings on repaired metal. When custom parts are required we fabricate brackets and mounts in-house to ensure fit and strength. Each repair concludes with functional testing under load and a documented checklist so operators leave with confidence in towing safety and durability.
