Sadly, the summer season has come to an end. However as we head into Autumn, we have some exciting changes and an action-packed year ahead to look forward to.
It's encouraging to see high levels of demand continuing with TRT Transport Parts. March has produced greater than-expected sales with a variety of genuine and after-market parts. We have new Sampa products arriving to cover most makes and models including suspension, brakes, and steering. Our trailer team is celebrating some wins with TRT’s first Gen. 4 ESS Platform Trailer for 2023 out the door to its customer, Nikau Group.
February had its challenges with the severe tropical cyclone Gabrielle that devastated parts of the North Island. Our customer, Prestige Building Removals, were moving a new transportable home when cyclone Gabrielle hit, and unfortunately lost their TRT House Moving Trailer and the home it was carrying. The trailer is currently back at TRT’s manufacturing facility in Hamilton being assessed and repaired by our team. It was a heart-breaking moment for our customers, nevertheless, it is a commitment of TRT to get this trailer back to full operational condition as soon as possible. A huge thanks also goes out to all those who reached out to these affected areas and helped in any way possible.
A lot of our customers with TRT’s Traction Air Systems installed have been asked to help with the clean-up. The Traction Air E Series is notable for its safety features so is the ideal equipment for major flooding events. We have also seen an exciting shift in the market with house-moving businesses taking advantage of the new capabilities for their trucks. This shift reflects the industry’s growing confidence in our state-of-the-art innovation and demonstrates the versatility of this product for a wide range of different applications.
I would also like to mention that our seating department is continuing to outperform. This is the outcome of two main reasons; Investment in good stock quantities that enable us to provide for our customers and be well-equipped for any challenges and we have qualified, knowledgeable and committed people in our seating team.
As always, thank you for your ongoing support and business and have a productive 2023.

An ESS trailer caught up in the Hastings floods has been brought back to TRT in Hamilton for a review, refit, and refurb. Everything will have to get stripped down, cleaned, replaced, or refitted.
We ask our long time resident parts guru Duke Cubis and 'Duke in training' Zane Bodiam (45 and 13yrs at TRT respectively).
Duke Cubis' knowledge and expertise goes unchallenged in the NZ trucking industry, and our parts and service customers have come to rely on it.
"Now is a key time for fleet maintenance, to assist, TRT has an extensive service exchange and repair programme for drive train parts, hydraulic componentry and steer axles." says Duke.
Zane: “Like transmissions we have a range of steer axles to factory spec. We reduce your downtime, send us your steer axle and we will send you a remanned one with a 12 month warranty or if time permits we can repair your existing steer axle – it doesn’t get easier than that to get a trailer back on the road”
Exchange Steer Axles include SAF, BPW, ROR and Meritor.
"Not many parts suppliers can say we do it all - but we do it all. We’re the one supplier that can sort all of this for you – supporting your operation and your own workshops, we’re happy to provide customers advice and we offer 12 month warranty on repairs to factory spec. Peace of mind."
Duke Cubis
Duke: “We build new drive shaft assemblies that are manufactured to factory specifications. We have the expertise in-house, with a balancing workshop and certified welders.
Duke: “It’s all about saving time and getting you back on the road faster, you could repair in-house - sure, but if you send us the old transmission, we can send a remanned one - that day – this saves time and cost. Plus we have a large range of stock available.”
Zane: “Our remanned transmissions come with a 12 month warranty. All componanents go through our standard practice of being crack tested first, before we rebuild with genuine OEM parts only.”
