I-80 equipment sells reconditioned bucket trucks and other equipment. Each and every vehicle that is bought receives a complete overhaul before ever being sold. The quality and amount of work that goes into each vehicle allows I-80 to stand behind each one that is sold.
The first step in the overhaul process is that the vehicle is completely disassembled. This allows for each vehicle to be completely inspected when it arrives. Any extra boxes are cut off of the truck and it goes on to the next step. The bucket truck is then sprayed down completely with a very powerful degreaser. Once the degreaser has had a chance to clean the truck it receives a full power wash.
The next step in the process is for the truck to be placed into the body bay. The truck is sanded completely down to the factory primer. A 320 grit sander is used to rid the vehicle of every bit of the paint. Once this is finished the dents are pulled and any bad metal on the truck is replaced. The truck is now ready to be repainted. The boxes and chassis are sprayed with with Colar epoxy primer for protection of the vehicle. Next a 2.8 industrial emron paint is applied. The paint is heat treated to 100 degrees and then the bed liners and walkways are sprayed 100 mills thick with the same paint. All the paint is applied using a 120 gallon Linex machine. The use of this kind of machinery is what allows us to place a warranty on all the bed liners and walkways in each and every truck.
The truck is now ready to the assembly bay and be completely reassembled. All the broken parts are replaced during this process to ensure that the truck will be in good working order when it is received by the customer. The mechanics bay is the next destination for the truck. The mechanics perform a 77 point inspection on each and every vehicle that passes them. The list of mechanical parts that are checked during this process are: the engine, power tran, steering, suspension, brakes, electrical system, cab, body, tires, wheels and rims.
Once the reconditioning process is complete the boom trucks, crane trucks and digger derrick trucks are ready to be sold. None of the bucket trucks for go out on the floor for sale until they receive this reconditioning. The high standards that are placed on this process is what allows I-80 to produce quality vehicles for their customers.
