Many times while we're on the road picking up and delivering radiators, fuel tanks, and other parts to the mines we have to pull over off the highway to make way for mining equipment that is being transported from one mine to another mine. Here are some pics we've taken of some of those [...]
This is a LeTourneau L1850 loader radiator we picked up from one of our mine customers. It was a mega down situation so we had to do the complete rebuild and have it back to the mine in 4 days. This radiator is a Mesabi style which has just under 1100 hundred individual [...]
Here's a load of work we picked up from the mines for repair & rebuilding. On our trailer is a Caterpillar 16G grader axle that needs to be rebuilt. We will weld up the bores and bore them back to the proper size with our portable line bore and reassemble it with all [...]
This is a bolt-on radiator out of an 8460 American crane. This radiator cools the lower engine of the crane. The original core was in pretty bad shape so it was decided to recore the radiator with a heavy duty copper and brass high efficiency core. The tanks and side brackets were thermal [...]
This is a small heat exchanger off of a Kenworth T800B blasting truck for one of our mining customers. The original heat exchanger was an all steel unit which was leaking in the core in several areas. So we built a complete replacement out of aluminum.

Here's some pics of some Caterpillar 793F haul trucks. These trucks were on lease to one of the mines but now they're just sitting since the lease ran out. The radiator sits behind the black grill on the front of the trucks. Looking at the whole truck doesn't make the radiators look so [...]
Here's some pics of a Caterpillar 3500 series diesel engine. This engine is a 3516 which came out of a 793 haul truck. The 3516 means it is a V16 cylinder engine. That's eight big cylinders down each side of the engine. This engine was just removed from the dump truck and replaced [...]
This is a Caterpillar 16G grader axle that we did a complete overhaul & rebuild to. We had to weld all the bores and then bore them to the correct size with our portable line bore for the new pins. We had to use a lot of heat & pressure in the press [...]
This is a load we picked up from one of the mines. The large radiator with the big fan shroud on it is a Mesabi-style radiator for a Komatsu 830E haul truck and the fuel tank is for the same application. The fuel tank is blowed up like a balloon so we'll have [...]
Here's some pics of a Komatsu 830E Mesabi-style haul truck radiator we rebuilt. These radiators have just under 1,300 individual L&M radiator tubes. Each tube is removed and then pressure washed, cleaned in the ultrasonic, & then both ends of each tube get buffed and polished for engagement into the new upper & [...]
