This Rebuild Technician is responsible for rebuilding heavy-duty truck parts using hydraulic press machine, torches, power tools, and hand tools with precision to meet company remanufacturing standards. The technician inspects and evaluates used parts for reusability, employs diagnostic tools to troubleshoot mechanical issues, and collaborates with a skilled team to optimize workflow and meet production goals.

Who We Are:

Weller Truck Parts began its history in Muskegon, Michigan in 1928 when Harry Weller, a small body shop owner, found value in recycled parts for the auto industry. The small business thrived so much that in 1949, Harry moved Weller Truck Parts to nearby Grand Rapids, MI. Since that time, Weller Truck Parts has continued to grow under the direction of the Weller family. In 2014, Weller became a member of the Jasper Holding family of companies and a 100% Associate Owned ESOP. Today, Weller continues to grow and out-service the competition by providing an engineered solution for efficient and cost-effective repair, removing the otherwise defunct units and parts from the path to a landfill.

What are you looking for?

Are you a “do it yourself” mechanic? The one that likes to “wrench” on their car engine in the driveway. Have you considered how you could get paid to “wrench”? If so, Weller Truck Parts may be the next career opportunity you are looking for. Weller Truck Parts is a remanufacturer of transmissions, differentials, steering gears, electronics, mechatronics, driveshafts, and heavy-duty truck parts. Weller Truck Parts is a stable and growing company with associates that are passionate about working together to grow their future. Weller is 100% Associate Owned, which means that as an associate owner you will own stock in a financially successful and growth-oriented company through the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). Where many companies miss the mark, Weller hits a home run in understanding that their most important asset is the associate-owner, and for this reason Weller offers extensive benefits beyond ownership in the company.
