This division originally began re-powering vehicles normally constructed for road use such as the Chevrolet S-10, Isuzu Pickups, and Jeep CJ and Jeep YJ. 1989 - In 1989 we began designing our own line of heavy duty vehicles. At the present time our company still re-powers various road vehicles as well as a broad line of heavy duty vehicles. These vehicles are commonly used throughout the mining industry as the DUV (Diesel Utility Vehicle). Our company services various sectors of the mining industry such as coal, salt, potash, trona, and zinc. Since 1988, Wallace Diesel Mining Equipment has supplied the underground mining industry with over 500 units of underground diesel equipment. 1994 - In 1994 our company recognized the need to diversify our product mix and began formulating a business plan to accommodate the necessary changes. Many new products have evolved due to the changes resulting from our new strategy. Our resulting product diversification was implemented due to new regulations and emission standards which were beginning to impact the demand for high sulfur coal which affected us greatly. 1995 - In 1995 our company began manufacturing a new line of agricultural equipment and utility trailers. Our company now produces a complete line of these products and we are continuing to design new products and improve production processes daily.
