Electrical excellence with Glo Trac

THREE YEARS ON, SUBURBAN TOWING EQUIPMENT CONTINUES TO RELY ON THE QUALITY AND WORKMANSHIP OF LUCIDITY LIGHTS AND HARNESSES.

Suburban Towing Equipment is a family owned tilt tray manufacturing company that has been servicing the Australian trailer and towing markets for over 25 years. The business specialises in supplying new and used tow trucks and heavy tilt slide trays and bodies. Its Mulgrave workshop is fully equipped to carry out all types of modifications and repairs, meanwhile its spare parts section carries a wide range of accessories to enhance the look of their trucks which includes chains, ratchets and lights. Since 2018 Suburban Towing has been utilising Lucidity Australia’s products with great success. “We use Lucidity’s Glo Trac Series LED lights which consist of Rear Combination Lamps, Side Marker Lamps plus Lucidity design and manufacture all of our wiring harnesses in Victoria. We have also increased the range of harnesses we get from Lucidity, they will now be doing around 95 per cent of all out electrical work by January 2022,” says Suburban Towing Equipment Director, Aaron Barrett. Lucidity’s 22033 range of LED Rear Combination lamps and 26275 Chrome Marker Lamps feature a unique Glo Trac light pattern and heavy-duty wire outlet for ease of mounting. “Our workshop is well set up for manufacturing of truck bodies,” Aaron says. “We also do truck repairs whether it is electrical, hydraulics, welding or fabrication. The electrical parts play a big part in the tow

More importantly they do a much better job with their harnesses. They use better and newer technology in their lighting systems which was the main reason for our move.” Lucidity understand the importance of quality from design through to manufacture, the Australian environment is extremely harsh only a quality product will last. Suburban and Lucidity share a passion for Australian manufacturing and locally engineered products that offer custom-made solutions to meet the different demands for a wide range of customers. “We haven’t looked back since we first started using Lucidity products three years ago,” Aaron says. “More and more people

have seen these lights and adapted to them because they have that wow factor. Since we implemented Lucidity wiring and lighting a lot of people have asked for these lights, they have become a standard feature in all of trucks.” The entire team of 25 people at Suburban Towing are pleased with the customer service and the product offering from Lucidity. “We are very happy with their customer service,” Aaron says. “We usually work with Sales Manager Rob Bettello. Lucidity is excellent to deal with, proactive, diligent and in-depth product knowledge the team at Lucidity always make me feel looked after, no matter what I go with, and they work very hard with me and my team to make sure all our wiring harnesses are made fit for purpose.”
