Trailer Repair – Semi-Trailer Kingpin Repair And Replacement

Tuesday, September 6th, 2016 Published By: Patrick Logan

When looking to repair or replace your semi-trailer kingpin, make sure to select an expert mechanic and refinisher in the Amarillo, Lubbock or Odessa, Texas regions. Whether you’re renting your trailer, own it or are looking to buy or rent a new one, checking the condition of your kingpin regularly is important to the safety of your entire rig as well as other drivers on the road. If your kingpin is worn out, the stability of your entire trailer is compromised. By repairing your trailer kingpin, replacing it completely or even choosing to upgrade to a new or used trailer, you’ll guarantee your trailer is ready for the long haul.

Replacing a Semi-Trailer Kingpin – A Good Choice For Trailer Repair?

If your kingpin is so worn out such that repair is not an option, you many choose to replace the entire piece. A certified mechanic can cut out the old kingpin from your trailer and the cross member supports. Then, a new kingpin is installed and professionally welded to your trailer.

Choosing a New or Used Trailer – The Best Option For Trailer Repair?

And of course, there is the option to forgo all the repairs or replacement costs and just buy a brand new trailer (or a good quality used one) with a mint condition kingpin. By choosing a new trailer, you’ll guarantee that your trailer kingpin meets all industry standards, meet hardness specifications, and can hold up to any job you have planned.  Area Trailer Sales and Rentals is ready to meet all your trailer needs.  Contact them today.

Whether you decide to refurbish or replace your worn out kingpin, or just decide to replace your trailer all together, choosing to maintain a kingpin in great condition means you are choosing safety first on the Lubbock, Amarillo and Odessa, Texas roads. Keep your trailer in great condition, your cargo secure and other drivers on those long Texas roads safe by routinely inspecting your trailer kingpin for wear and tear.
