Top Quality Staff and Engine Parts

Heavy diesel vehicles are expensive and time-consuming to replace. It makes sense, for yourself and the environment, to extend their lives by reconditioning their engines. A remanufactured engine can be almost as good as a new engine, depending on the skill of the mechanic and the quality of the parts used in the rebuild. Franklin Engineering understands this. We only employ the best staff and source the top quality parts for each and every job we take on.

Unrivalled In-House Capabilities

Our shop provides a full range of services, from machining only to complete engine rebuilding and Dyno testing. Our skilled technicians can test and restore cylinder blocks, cylinder heads, crankshafts and conrods. And because we have an extensive parts department we can supply replacement engine parts at competitive prices. We can also custom-build components such as cylinder liners and piston rings. All work is done to your requirements. Please ask our friendly staff for a free estimate.
