Your heavy-duty truck’s driveline connects the transmission to the axles and propels your vehicle forwards and backwards. It’s an essential part of your truck’s controls. At Schroeder Truck Repair, we can handle all of your driveline maintenance and repairs requirements and get you back on the road, moving in the right direction. We have expert technicians and advanced technology and equipment to administer high-quality repair services for all models of heavy-duty trucks. We understand that time is money, and we make it our mission to get you safely on your way as soon as possible.
Your driveline is composed of many crucial components, one of which is the differential. When you drive around a corner, your outside wheels have to travel farther than the inside wheels. Sure, it may seem like a small amount of distance, but that little bit adds up to a lot. If this is not compensated for properly it can cause severe damage to your vehicle over time. Your differential compensates for this difference in the distance through a set of gears that transfer the torque mechanically. The main point of this is to keep the load on the engine and transmission steady no matter how sharp your vehicle turns.
How do you know if your driveline needs to be serviced?
- It’s been a while since your last service. - Even a permanently lubed driveline still needs a periodic inspection to prevent downtime or warranty issues. It is better to catch a problem or damage before it becomes worse.
- You’ve driven 30,000 - 43,000 miles without changing your differential fluid. - The differential fluid is critical to keeping this component running smoothly. If you’re hauling heavy loads, we recommend even more frequent service appointments.
- The truck has been driven hard. - Frequent popping of the clutch or spinning of the tires can wreak havoc because when they catch, it creates a shock load that can result in either a fractured U-joint or driveline tube being twisted. This type of damage is visible and obvious to the repair technicians.
- There’s been an accident. - Even minor impacts such as backing up into a loading dock or hitting a parking pole can damage the driveline. This type of collision creates extensive shock and unexpected pressure on the driveline that can be catastrophic.

Although I live in NC, I've been using Schroeder Truck Repair for over 16 years. Their mechanics and people are top notch. There's not a better mechanic in the country than David. From light mechanical to big mechanical jobs to welding, Schroeder has taken care of it all for me. They're a big reason my 2016 car hauler (truck and trailer) have over 1.2 million miles and is still going strong. When I leave Schroeder I know any problem is resolved... every time. Thanks Schroeder!

We were Left in a bind on our Annual inspections for our trailers, I called Schroder, and Phil was very helpful in getting the inspections completed. Joey was prompt, informative, polite, and their work is top notch. They are now our go to for any of our service needs on our trailer repairs.
I lease trailers to owner operators in the Southeast and one of my trailers happened to get stuck at Phil, Mike, and Brandon's garage Schroeder Truck Repair for several months. These guys are the absolute best, they are kind, understanding, professional, and their staff is the same. They communicated, took pictures and helped me when i know a lot of other places would not spend the time to be helpful. They are guys you can trust. I highly recommend them. My driver's who had work done there as well, also had a good experience. I would imagine they would and should have hundreds of 5 star reviews. Honest guys running a great business and doing it the right way. Thank you so much.
