VTS Systems
For many, it is time to begin 2015 planning strategies. Do you have the right mix of vehicles to service your market, the right employees, and are they well-trained? You should also look at advancing software technology. In plain terms, the market offers two types of software, PC based, and cloud-based, and each offers unique advantages. If you want your drivers to answer customer calls, enter towing and pricing information via a smart phone or tablet, you might consider a cloud based application.
If, however, your business model requires a dispatcher to efficiently manage the process of answering calls, entering data, assigning the correct tow truck, and providing drivers with “what, when, and how,” then a PC/server solution may be a better fit.
Beginning in 2015, VTS Systems will offer both a cloud-based and PC/server based solutions. Remember, do your research, call and ask questions, seek opinions, as to what works and what does not, and bear in mind, you can contact VTS Systems at 281.373.3072 Ext. 2.

Tru-Balance
When mounting hub-piloted wheels, all the weight of the wheel and tire rests on the top pilots, creating a gap in the bottom pilots, leaving the wheel off center. A small gap the size of a business card can result in an off center wheel and an “egg-shaped” motion upon rotation. This uneven motion results in tire vibration and irregular tire wear. Even if you balance the tires, the wheel is still off center.
The TRU-BALANCE products bypass the hub-pilots and center the wheels back to the wheel studs, which is the true center of the wheel. When the wheels are properly centered, the result is increased tire life, increased fuel mileage and an unbelievably smooth ride.

Steck’s 4th Wheel Loader
Calls for quickly moving vehicles with broken ball joints continue to grow. While many use skates or GoJacks, many towers find that their ability to safely load and secure a vehicle these vehicles, especially aluminum beds, on their roll back wreckers that they need a studier device.
Steck’s 4th Wheel Loader is a tough 24” x 14” hardened aluminum fabricated platform with two 4” x 10” Polypropylene roller wheels, six 5/8” holes for mini-J hooks for loading assistance and 1” axles which provides a safe platform to easily hold and secure up to 5 tons while loading a vehicle. The 4th Wheel Loader also includes two shims that allow the driver to raise the vehicle with busted ball joints, lost wheels and severely bent axles and place it at a desired height for secure loading on the roll back. The Loader is 4” high (without shim blocks) with a built in 6” X 1 ¼” handle which will allow you to store the 25 lb. Loader behind your seat or tool box. Quicker loading and unloading while preventing further damage to vehicles by allowing the driver to center, pull and properly secure the vehicle on the roll back bed as well as preventing bed damage to the roll back.
We have also found that the shops where the towers drop the damaged vehicle has a similar problem because Go-Jacks do not work well outdoors, which result in many damaged floor jacks trying to move the vehicle into the shop. The 4th Wheel Loader with its two Polypropylene wheels works well in gravel and dirt to move the vehicle directly into the repair bays and frame racks.
