DIY Volvo FH 600
In October SRH Milk Haulage purchased a new FH 600. With a large fleet of trucks they have their own workshop crew onsite and wanted to utilise them to customise the new truck. So they ordered all their stainless accessories as DIY kits and fitted it themselves. There were a few items they wanted that didn’t fall into the DIY range – these included stainless steel tank wraps, a twin air intake conversion and a twin exhaust conversion. SRH pulled the tanks off, sent them to our workshop and we sent them back wrapped in stainless. And for the twin conversions our crew went to SRH.
The fit out included:
Duel air intake
Air Rams, s/steel
Exhaust twin conversion kit
Exhaust stacks, 7″>5″ AK curved
Rear deckplate kit, extended with logo
Mudflap weights, s/steel
Rear tail light covers
Quarter guard dress trim
Lower wing trim
Trailer circuit breaker cover
Bullbar numberplate mount
Number plate covers
Mudguard drive centre infill panel

The Road to Alice
On August 22nd SLS began the trek to Alice Springs for the National Road Transport Hall of Fame Reunion 2015. Just a few hours into the several day trip we caught up with several other truckers on their way to Alice. The further we traveled the more truckers we met. The trip to Alice and the Reunion itself was awesome. Below are a few photos from the trek.

Forged By Friendship
Australian Custom Trucks magazine recently ran an article featuring Betts Bower Haulage Group and the custom fit out SLS Trucking did on their C509 and T909 Director. Chris Betts and Daniel Bower first met at the annual Newcastle Transport Awareness Day several years ago and their friendship developed when they both had trucks being customised in our workshop.
