​​​​Since going to diesel tech school in 1982, Kenneth Garber has never strayed very far from the end of a wrench. In 1997, Garber Diesel service was born and Ken began doing diesel engine repairs on a part-time basis in front of his personal 2 car garage. In 2002, he renovated another building on his property into a 4 bay shop and dedicated all his time to diesels and also began expanding into medium and heavy truck maintenance and repairs. In 2003 Ken recognized the need for a quality lubricant and learned of Archer Lubricants. In 2012, his son Melvin joined the business and made the 4th member to the crew. As the business expanded, they began looking at options to increase their capacity. In 2012, Garber Diesel added an oil warehouse to their facility and became the distribution point for all the Archer dealers in Missouri. In 2013, Garber Diesel began a joint project with Archer Lubricants to develop and test an oil for use in biogas engine applications at a feedlot in Triplett, Missouri. Following 2 years of proven results, the team at Garber Diesel is now working with several landfills to continue testing and proving Archer Natural Gas Engine Oil. In the beginning of 2015, they relocated to a 10 bay shop with great highway frontage. After the move, they noticed immediately increase in business and expanded their team to 2 full-time service writers and 5 full time techs.

Sometimes an engine isn’t repairable. It’s replaceable.

When internal engine damage reaches a certain point, continuing to repair individual components may not be the right solution. That’s when a complete engine replacement can make more sense.

This Ram is in the Garber Diesel Service shop for major engine work. Jobs like this go well beyond swapping a few parts. The engine has to be removed, components inspected, the replacement properly installed, and everything put back together correctly before the truck goes back to work.

The important part is knowing when to repair and when replacement is the better path.

At Garber Diesel Service, we diagnose the problem first and determine what the engine actually needs. No guessing. No replacing parts just to see what happens.

When your diesel needs major engine work, we’re equipped to handle it.

After an accident, taking care of the vehicle is only part of the job. Taking care of the people matters too.

Makayla and her family were traveling through the area when an unexpected accident interrupted their road trip. She shared this about her experience with Garber Diesel Service:

“They really take care of your family as their own. I didn’t expect to get into an accident as we were driving through the area on a road trip but they were there fast, stayed the entire time and made my kids truly feel comfortable after experiencing their first car wreck.”

That’s a review that means a lot to our team.

Towing and recovery often means meeting people on one of their worst days. Our job is to handle the recovery professionally while remembering there are people behind every call who may be shaken up, stranded, or unsure what happens next.

Thank you, Makayla, for trusting Garber Diesel Service with your family and for sharing your experience.

Some calls aren’t routine. When the unexpected happens, the first priority is handling the situation safely.

Garber Diesel Service handles accident recovery with a focus on protecting the scene, choosing the right recovery approach, and moving damaged vehicles as safely as the circumstances allow.

Sometimes the best service starts before anyone even makes a call.

Erehn shared this story about a flat tire on the highway. Dustin happened to be passing by, stopped to help, and offered to get them down the road to the tire shop.

“Garber Diesel has always gone above and beyond for us. We had a flat on the highway and Dustin, who was just passing by, stopped and offered to get us down the road to the tire shop. Dustin has helped us before and he is always very professional and kind.”

That says a lot about the kind of service we want Garber Diesel Service to be known for. Help when you can. Treat people right. Be there when someone needs you.

Thank you, Erehn, for the five-star review, and thank you for continuing to trust our team for repair, maintenance, and towing.

Modern trucks require modern diagnostics.

This Renegade Veracruz is built on a Ford Super Duty platform with complex electronic systems that can’t always be diagnosed with a basic code reader.

At Garber Diesel Service, we use an oscilloscope when the job calls for it. Instead of simply reading a fault code, an oscilloscope lets the technician see electrical signals as they’re happening. That helps trace an electrical or communication problem back to its actual source.

Codes can point you in a direction. The right diagnostic process helps determine why the code is there.

For today’s diesel trucks, motorhomes, and electronically controlled equipment, accurate diagnostics can mean the difference between finding the problem and simply replacing parts hoping the problem goes away.

Three hours is a long way to drive for a repair shop. We don’t take that kind of trust lightly.

Ryan made the trip from the St. Louis area and shared this about his experience with Garber Diesel Service:

“Great service and repair quality at a fair price. Bruce will get you taken care of efficiently and without a hassle. Worth the 3 hours out of St. Louis to get here.”

Quality repairs, fair pricing, and straightforward service. That’s what we want every customer to be able to say when they leave our shop.

Thank you, Ryan, for making the drive, trusting Bruce and the Garber Diesel Service team, and leaving us a five-star review.

When heavy equipment gets stuck, a standard tow isn’t always going to get the job done.

This Schramm drilling rig found itself sunk into soft ground, turning a bad situation into a heavy recovery job.

Recoveries like this require more than pulling harder. The weight of the equipment, where it’s sitting, available recovery points, and ground conditions all have to be considered before the recovery begins.

Garber Diesel Service handles heavy-duty towing and recovery for trucks, commercial vehicles, and equipment. The goal is to make a plan, use the right recovery equipment, and get the equipment back where it belongs without creating another problem in the process.

Heavy equipment. Heavy recovery. When you need help getting it moving again, give us a call.

Good service isn’t about saying yes to everything. It’s about being honest about what you can do, and helping the customer find the right answer when you can’t.

We appreciate Teddy taking the time to share his experience with Garber Diesel Service:

“They’re able to get the job done in a timely manner. They’re honest about what they can and can’t do for you. If they can’t, they will help find someone who can. Reasonable price for this area.”

That kind of trust matters to us. We’ll tell you what we find, what we can do to help, and if something falls outside our capabilities, we’ll do our best to point you in the right direction.

Thank you, Teddy, for the five-star review and for choosing Garber Diesel Service.

Drive straight. Save more.

If your truck is pulling to one side, the steering wheel isn’t sitting straight, or you’re noticing uneven tire wear, alignment could be costing you more than you realize.

Garber Diesel Service uses Bee Line alignment equipment to accurately measure and correct heavy-duty truck alignment.

A properly aligned truck can help:

• Reduce uneven and premature tire wear
• Improve steering and handling
• Reduce unnecessary rolling resistance
• Help extend the life of your tires
• Keep your truck tracking straight down the road

For a working truck or fleet, those benefits add up. Better tire life and fewer alignment-related problems mean less unnecessary expense and downtime.

Don’t wait until your tires show you how far the alignment has gotten off. Garber Diesel Service can check it and get you tracking straight again.
