🌧️ DON’T OVERLOOK YOUR WIPER BLADES

They’re a small part of your truck, but when the weather turns, you’ll be glad they’re doing their job.

Wiper blades are easy to forget about until you actually need them. Over time, exposure to sun, heat, dirt and everyday use can cause the rubber to deteriorate and reduce visibility.

πŸš› Some signs your wipers may need replacing:

πŸ’§ Streaking – Leaving water or grime behind on the windscreen.

πŸ‘€ Poor Visibility – Struggling to clear the windscreen effectively in wet conditions.

〰️ Skipping or Juddering – Blades aren't moving smoothly across the glass.

πŸ” Visible Wear – Cracked, split or damaged rubber is a good sign it's time for a replacement.

A clear windscreen is an important part of staying safe on the road, so don't wait until you're caught in the rain to find out your wipers aren't up to the job.

Through PACCAR Parts, our team can help with genuine and branded replacement options for your truck.

Not sure which wiper blades you need? Have your truck details or VIN/chassis number ready and talk to our Parts Team.

πŸ”§ PARTS MATTER | WHAT PARTS ARE WORTH KEEPING ON HAND?

When you’re running multiple trucks, even a small issue can mean unwanted downtime.

Keeping a few commonly used consumables and replacement parts on hand can help you deal with the little things quickly and keep your trucks moving.

Depending on your fleet, it may be worth having:

πŸ’‘ Globes & Fuses
Small items that can cause a big inconvenience when you don't have a replacement handy.

🌧️ Wiper Blades
Good visibility matters – especially when the weather turns.

πŸ”§ Belts
Having the correct replacement available can save valuable time when one needs attention.

πŸ›’οΈ Correct Fluids & Coolant
Keeping manufacturer-specified fluids available makes topping up and routine maintenance easier.

βš™οΈ Filters & Service Consumables
For businesses managing their own scheduled maintenance, having the correct consumables ready can help with planning.

πŸš› Vehicle-Specific Spares
If you operate several similar trucks, talk to our Parts Team about which commonly required items may be worth keeping in stock.

The key isn't filling your workshop with spare parts – it's having the right parts available when you need them.

PARTS MATTER. PLAN AHEAD. REDUCE DOWNTIME.

πŸš› TRUCK TALK | WHY SERVICING BY KILOMETRES AND TIME MATTERS

β€œMy truck hasn’t done many kilometers, so it shouldn’t need a service yet… right?”

Not necessarily.

When it comes to looking after your Isuzu, kilometers are only part of the picture. Service intervals can also have a time-based requirement – which is particularly important for trucks that don't clock up big kilometers.

πŸ”΄ WHY DOES TIME MATTER?

Even when a truck isn't travelling long distances, it's still exposed to things that can affect its condition over time.

Think:

⏱️ Lots of idling or short trips
🚚 Stop-start or local operation
🌑️ Heat and changing operating conditions
πŸ’§ Fluids and lubricants ageing over time
πŸ”§ Components that still require regular inspection

A truck might only travel a relatively small number of kilometres each year, but that doesn't mean everything underneath it stops ageing.

That's why regular servicing matters – even for low-kilometre trucks.

Keeping up with the correct service schedule gives our technicians the opportunity to inspect your truck, carry out required maintenance and identify potential issues before they turn into unwanted downtime.

πŸ› οΈ NOT SURE WHEN YOUR ISUZU IS DUE?

Don't wait for the odometer to tell the whole story.

Speak with the Gilbert & Roach Newcastle Service Department and we can help you understand the servicing requirements for your truck.

πŸš› RIGHT TRUCK. RIGHT JOB. | WHY WHEELBASE MATTERS

When choosing a truck, it's easy to focus on things like payload, horsepower and body size.

But there's another measurement that can make a big difference to how your truck works every day:

πŸ“ WHEELBASE.

Wheelbase is the distance between the front and rear axles – and choosing the right wheelbase is an important part of matching a truck to its application.

πŸ”΄ SHORTER WHEELBASE

A shorter wheelbase can provide a tighter turning circle and greater manoeuvrability, making it well suited to applications where space is limited.

Think:
πŸ™οΈ Urban deliveries
🚧 Tight worksites
πŸ”§ Trade & service applications
↩️ Frequent turning and reversing

πŸ”΄ LONGER WHEELBASE

A longer wheelbase can accommodate longer body configurations, making it suitable for applications where greater body length or load space is required.

Think:
πŸ“¦ Freight & distribution
🚚 Curtainsiders and vans
πŸͺ΅ Longer trays
πŸ—οΈ Specialised body applications

But bigger isn't automatically better.

A long body might give you more usable space, but you also need to consider where the truck will operate, how often it needs to manoeuvre in tight areas and the body and load requirements of your business.

That's why choosing a truck is about more than finding one with the right GVM.

Payload + wheelbase + body + application all need to work together.

πŸš› RIGHT TRUCK. RIGHT JOB.

Talk to the Isuzu Sales Team at Gilbert & Roach Newcastle and we can help you choose a truck and configuration that suits the way your business actually works.
