Case Study: Fitzgerald Truck Sales achieves profitable growth with Eaton transmissions and clutches

Eaton transmissions providing loads of support for nation’s leading glider kit supplier

Fitzgerald Truck Sales, the largest U.S. manufacturer of commercial truck glider kits, needed to support long-term growth while protecting profitability and maintaining the high quality standards that drive repeat business. To meet that challenge, the family-owned company relied on Eaton transmissions and clutches for its glider kits.

Eaton supplied genuine transmissions, clutches, and Roadranger-approved lubricants, along with strong warranty support and dependable performance. The result was increased sales and quality performance, with less than 1% of roughly 2,000 Eaton transmissions purchased annually experiencing warranty issues. Fitzgerald Truck Sales says Eaton helps keep the business profitable and has become the only transmission choice for its glider kits.
