Training Organization Announces Preventative Maintenance

Vehicle Inspection, and Service Advisor Training Seminar

The American Council of Frame and Alignment Specialists (ACOFAS) is responding to the projections by Mr. Stu MacKay at the HDAW '08 opening session in January of 2008 regarding the future of the Heavy Truck Industry and the relation of the Heavy Duty Truck Aftermarket. Mr. MacKay indicated that the Heavy Duty Trucking Industry is attempting to remove themselves from the truck maintenance and repair business and concentrate on the logistics business.  This leaves an opportunity for the aftermarket to provide service to the trucking industry.

ACOFAS is conducting a seminar concentrating on:

• Electronic roll resistance brake testing

• Undercarriage and suspension analysis

• Establishing and conducting preventative maintenance programs

• Marketing the preventative maintenance programs

• Training service advisors

This seminar will be held May 13^th and 14^th  at TruckAlign Suspension Center in Altoona Wisconsin.

ACOFAS is making this seminar available to all members of ACOFAS for $150 registration fee.  Members of NTHECC, SSA, HDDA, and CVSN may attend for $200 registration fee.  Non-members will pay a $300 registration fee.  The fee includes training materials and two lunches.
