From Rust to Revival: Mobile weld Repair Fabrication for Chevy Hauler
Salt and Time Lead to Severe Rust Damage
Our client purchased a 3-year-old Chevy dump truck at a state auction in Georgia. The truck had been sitting idle for 2.5 years after the county filled the bed with salt, anticipating winter conditions that never arrived. Over time, exposure to weather and the corrosive salt caused severe rust damage to the truck’s bed and frame. Additionally, the stagnant fuel led to blockages in the fuel system. Since the truck was no longer drivable, The client requested our on-site mobile welding and fabrication services to restore and reinforce the truck’s frame and bed.
We began by cutting out the rusted areas of the bed, frame, and tailgate. Using MIG welding, we fabricated new light boxes, riser panels, tie-down hooks, then reinforced the bed liner with heavy-gauge steel to withstand the abrasive materials the client hauls. The back frame Trim plate was upgraded to 3/8 plate. The outriggers were reinforced with a heavy 2 x 2 x 1/4 angle for rigidity and Robustness.
Critical Repairs for Bed and Frame Restoration
The entire process, including steel fabrication and installation, delivered fast turnaround times. After rewiring the electronics, the truck was primed and prepped for a full repaint. This comprehensive repair not only restored the truck but also added significant value. Our client was extremely satisfied with the quality, fast service, and value for his investment.
We take pride in delivering high-quality, durable repairs that not only meet but exceed our clients' expectations. This Chevy dump truck went from being a rusted, non-drivable vehicle to a fully restored and reinforced workhorse, ready to handle heavy loads and tough conditions once again. From on-site mobile welding to expert steel fabrication, our fast turnaround and attention to detail ensured the truck was back in service quickly and with improved longevity.
