State Certified Truck & Bus Inspection Lane

In November of 2002, we opened our new state truck and bus safety inspection lane to meet our customer's requests and growing needs.  The lane is open Monday - Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday, 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM.

Many minor repairs can be performed on the spot to correct the violation so the vehicle is compliant and the driver may continue on his way.  Other, more in-depth repairs are performed at our truck and bus facility next door.  Inspections are very reasonably princed, as are the repairs.

Our most important concern of the vehicle going through our lane is safety.  The safety of the vehicle operator and the other motorists is the priority of our Inspection Lane.  This is what separates our lane from the others.  No vehicle will pass through if it is not in compliance with the state of Illinois' safety regulations.  Our second priority is convenience to the customer, followed by price.  

In the school bus inventory department, we stock a very large variety of school bus repair parts.  We stock parts such as oil seals, filters, thermostats, crosswalk arms, interrupt kits, switches, u-joints, glow plug relay kits, exhaust clamp systems, vandal locks, and caps.  Also, many parts for brake jobs, like brake shoes, booster pumps, linings, and pads.
