Motor City Trailer Repair — Farmington Hills Axle Service & Maintenance

Motor City Trailer Repair provides dependable trailer axle repair for trailer owners in Farmington Hills. We address bent axle tubes, warped spindles, worn bearings, cracked hubs, torn seals, and damaged mounting brackets that cause noise, wobble, or poor tracking. Michigan’s salted roads, freeze/thaw cycles, and heavy seasonal towing of boats, landscaping gear, and work trailers accelerate wear and corrosion. Our team combines inspection, precision measurement, and practical towing knowledge to identify hidden damage and recommend reconditioning, part replacement, or fabrication so trailers return to safe, reliable service for daily jobs or weekend hauling.

We perform axle disassembly, bearing and seal replacement, hub repair or swap, spindle straightening, and tube repair or full axle replacement when needed. Brake integration checks include drum and rotor inspections, actuator and electric/hydraulic brake testing, and junction box or controller diagnostics. For bent or cracked mounting points we offer skilled welding and metal fabrication to rebuild hangers, spring seats, and custom brackets to restore original alignment and load ratings.

Local relevance

Salt exposure in winter speeds bearing and hub corrosion, while frequent launching of boats and towing heavy equipment increases fatigue on spindles and mounts.
