Farm Truck Repair in Hillsboro, KS
The short answer
Farm truck repair is about getting the truck that hauls your grain, feed or fuel back to work before the field is ready without it.
Picture the wheat coming in, the combine running and the truck idling in line at the elevator when the temperature needle starts creeping toward red. A pickup or grain truck on a Marion County farm works harder in a few weeks of harvest than most vehicles do all year, on dust, gravel and heavy loads. We repair farm trucks and diesel pickups in Hillsboro, so bring it in, or we will come and get it from the farm for free within 40 road miles so nobody has to leave the field.
Call or text (620) 416-0008. Describe the noise. We'll do the rest.
We answer texts the same day we get them.

We plan around harvest. Wheat harvest in June and July and fall harvest in September and October are when a broken truck costs you the most, so we keep longer hours during harvest. The best time to bring a truck in is a few weeks before, so we can find the worn belt or the weak battery while there is still time to fix it.
We treat a mid-season breakdown as urgent. Call and tell us what the truck is doing, and we will tell you straight how quickly we can get to it. Within 40 road miles of Hillsboro, including Marion, Peabody, Hesston and Moundridge, we pick the truck up from the farm and bring it back at no charge. We do not pick up trucks that need a CDL to drive.
We tell you what it needs and what it costs before any work starts. Nothing is done until you approve it, and if some of it can wait until after harvest, we will say so.
We keep farms with two or more vehicles moving with Moxie Fleet Priority, which is free to join. It adds priority scheduling, a dedicated fleet technician, one monthly invoice on net 30 terms and a pre-approved repair limit, so a small repair does not sit waiting for a phone call while you are in the combine.

What wears out farm trucks around here
- Dust, which clogs air filters and radiators and wears everything it gets into
- Heavy loads, which work brakes, suspension, transmissions and tires much harder than normal driving
- Long idling at the elevator or the field edge, which is hard on diesel exhaust systems
- Sitting unused between harvests, which lets batteries die, seals dry out and brakes rust
- Gravel and field roads that loosen steering and suspension parts
How we diagnose farm truck repair in Hillsboro
- We ask what the truck does and when, because a loss of power pulling a load and a loss of power empty point to different faults.
- We read every computer module, including the diesel and transmission ones, with dealer-level diagnostics.
- We check the basics that farm work punishes first, such as air filters, cooling, brakes and batteries.
- We test the suspect part directly before we recommend replacing it.
What we check before harvest
- Air filter, radiator and cooling system for dust and chaff

Farm truck repair questions we hear every week
When should I get my farm truck checked before harvest?
A few weeks ahead is best, so there is time to order parts and fix anything we find before you need the truck every day. For wheat harvest that usually means May, and for fall harvest late August. A truck that sat all winter or all summer is worth a look even if it started fine last time. Text us and we will find a slot.
Will you pick up a truck from the farm?
We will, at no charge, anywhere within 40 road miles of the shop in Hillsboro, as long as the truck does not need a CDL to drive. That covers most of Marion County and reaches McPherson, Newton, Hesston and Cottonwood Falls. We collect the truck, repair it and bring it back, so you do not lose a person from the field to drive it in.
Can our farm join Moxie Fleet Priority?
Your farm can join if it runs two or more vehicles, and it costs nothing. You get priority scheduling, free pickup and delivery, a dedicated fleet technician, one monthly invoice and a pre-approved repair limit. That means small repairs go ahead straight away during harvest instead of waiting for you to call back from the field.
