Superior Truck & Trailer offers brake repair and maintenance services for medium and heavy-duty trucks. We have your back, whether you’ve got an issue with your drum brake assemblies or a leak somewhere in your compressed air system.
Drum brake assemblies use brake pads to create enough stopping power to bring trucks as heavy as 100 thousand pounds to a stop. Although brake pads last for quite a while, they need to be changed once every so often. Fortunately, we here at Superior Truck & Trailer change brake pads all the time! It’s important to note that you won’t always notice any symptoms as your brake pad wears down.
Your slack adjuster accommodates this wear by shoring up any slack the worn pad creates. This is a great way to keep your brake assemblies fully operational, but also makes worn pads hard to spot. Fortunately, we’ve got the tools needed to measure brake pad life. Call today!
Slack adjusters are designed to shore up any slack created by a set of worn brake pads. They are designed to work automatically, however, they can and often do malfunction. Symptoms of malfunctioning slack adjusters include poor braking performance, pulling to one side when braking, and farther brake pedal travel. We highly recommend getting your slack adjusters calibrated by a trained professional, for they are an integral part of your drum brakes assembly. One small error can have catastrophic consequences.
Give us a call, and we’ll send out an operator to your location as soon as possible!

Superior (describes them fully) Truck & Trailer Repair saved the day!!! We had a shackle break on our fifth wheel camper and their employee Joe answered our call on a Sunday and led us into their locked yard so we could drop the camper safely for the night. They immediately fixed it on a Monday morning and kept it inside out of the rain until we arrived. God blessed us that day when we called them. Our sincere thanks to exceptional service!!!
