I just purchased an M-1088 6x6 converted to a water truck from a construction equipment auction. We intend to use this on a ranch for general purpose water truck stuff and fire suppression. We are not mechanics. I understand this truck needs an alternator, and don't know too much about the condition beyond that. Given this truck would cost us close to $100k to build from the ground up, even if we have to put some $ into it, we'll still end up way ahead. This seemed like a pretty good deal at $32k.
Can anyone suggest a shop that works on these? The truck is presently in Chehalis, WA and we will ultimately be shipping it to Bakersfield, CA. Ideally if someone knows of a shop within 200 miles of Bakersfield, CA, that would be best. Also anything in the Las Vegas area would be good. Short of finding that, we could use a shop anywhere along the route from Chehalis, WA to Bakersfield, CA , but it's nice to have the place be semi local so we could continue to utilize the same shop for future work. Worst case, anywhere in the western USA will work, but we're trying to keep shipping costs down with some place that isn't too far out of the way.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!
