Below are the core services we provide across Melbourne Metro. Select a service to find out what's involved, how long it takes, and what to expect from us.
Truck Suspension Repairs
A worn or failed suspension component doesn't just affect ride quality – it affects load stability, tyre wear, and your vehicle's roadworthiness.
Rebushing of Suspension and Chassis Components
Worn bushes cause handling instability and accelerated tyre wear – problems that compound quickly on a loaded heavy vehicle.
Heavy Vehicle Welding
Structural cracks and weld failures on a heavy vehicle are a compliance issue, not just a mechanical one.
Chassis Repairs
A damaged chassis compromises the structural integrity of everything mounted to it – get it assessed before it grounds your vehicle.
Air Suspension Repairs
Airbag failures and ride height issues affect load carrying, driver comfort, and your vehicle's compliance with load limits.
Spring Suspension Repairs
A broken or sagging leaf spring on a loaded truck is a safety and compliance risk that needs attention before your next run.
Trailer Repairs and Servicing
A trailer out of service costs more than the repair – our qualified staff keep your trailers roadworthy and compliant.
Heavy Vehicle Pre-Purchase Inspection
Buying a used truck or heavy vehicle without an independent inspection is one of the most avoidable risks in fleet management – and our inspection is free.
Emergency Breakdown Repairs
If your vehicle breaks down, bring it to our Nunawading workshop – we accept emergency vehicles on premises, and Anne is reachable before and after hours.

Common Questions Before You Call
What types of vehicles does Tandem Drive Truck Suspension Repairs service?
We work on trucks, semi-trailers, buses, and other heavy vehicles. If it's got a suspension system and it's a commercial or heavy vehicle, we can assess and repair it. Call us with your vehicle type and we'll confirm whether we can help before you make the trip to Nunawading.
How long does a truck suspension repair take at your Nunawading workshop?
Most suspension repairs are completed within one to three business days depending on parts availability and the extent of the damage. We give you a realistic timeframe upfront – before any work begins – so you can plan around your vehicle being off the road.
Is there a charge to get a quote for suspension or chassis repairs?
No – quotes are free. We inspect the vehicle, identify what needs doing, and give you an accurate price before we start. There's no obligation to proceed, and we won't pressure you. If you want to think it over, that's no problem.
Do I need to book in advance, or can I bring my truck in without an appointment?
Bookings are preferred so we can allocate a bay and the right tradespeople for your vehicle. For emergency breakdowns, call us first – we'll do our best to get you in as quickly as possible. Anne is reachable before and after business hours for urgent situations.
How do I know if my truck's suspension needs professional attention or if I can keep running?
If your vehicle is pulling to one side, tyre wear is uneven, the ride feels softer than normal under load, or you've heard a clunk from the suspension – don't wait. These are warning signs that worsen under load. A free inspection is the fastest way to get a straight answer.
