Hydraulic System Repair

Hydraulic failure is the #1 cause of equipment downtime in Utah, and let’s be honest—it’s usually the most frustrating thing you’ll deal with on a jobsite! You’ve got a leak you can’t find, a pump that’s screaming like a banshee, or a machine that just feels 'tired' the moment the oil gets hot. At Iron Horse Field Service, we specialize in bringing the diagnostic lab directly to your machine. We serve Salt Lake City, Tooele, Ogden, Park City, and the surrounding Wasatch Front construction sites.

I’ve seen so many guys spend thousands of dollars replacing a main pump only to find out the problem was a ten-dollar relief valve spring that had snapped! That’s why we don't guess. We use high-precision flow meters and pressure gauges to prove exactly where the fault is before we ever turn a wrench. Whether it’s a pressure loss in the main bank, an overheating issue caused by internal bypass, or erratic operation from a failing pilot system, we find the truth in the dirt.

When your hydraulics aren’t right, your machine is a danger to itself and everyone around it. A 'jumpy' boom or a drifting bucket can lead to a disaster in a heart beat. We get your system back to factory specs so you can work safely and efficiently. I tell my students all the time: 'The machine is talking to you; you just have to know how to listen.' If your iron is acting up, give us a call. We’ll come out, hook up the gauges, and get you a straight answer on what it takes to get back to full production.
