Founded in 1975 in Laval, our family-owned business has been serving Laval and the Greater Montreal area for over 50 years. What began as a small garage specializing in suspension, steering, and alignments has grown into one of the most reputable truck repair centres in the region.
In 1984, the second generation of the family expanded the business by creating Centre de Camion CT.CAM, adding complete rebuilding and repair services for transmissions, differentials, steering boxes, and clutches. In the early 2000s, we became specialists in chassis modifications, which remains an essential part of our expertise today.
What sets us apart is our constant investment in the most modern equipment and ongoing training, as well as the growth of our facilities — from 6 service bays in 1975 to 15 bays today. This allows us to ensure that every repair is carried out with precision, efficiency, and speed, so your truck gets back on the road as quickly as possible.
With more than 30 experienced mechanics and a strong team of foremen and counter staff, we provide reliable solutions for fleets, heavy trucks, light trucks, buses, trailers, motorhomes, and pickups.
Proud partners of TruckPro since 1975, and now with the third generation of the family involved in the business, we continue to pursue the same mission: to provide the most reliable truck repair service in Laval and the Greater Montreal area.
These numerous changes and the company’s constant expansion are easier to understand when you know the company’s history.
From 1915 to 1986, when people talked about business, they were talking about Ressorts Industriels Laval Inc. It was under this name that the original founder, Mr. Lodovico (Ludevic) Forlini, established a company that would quickly become a leader in the field of suspension and steering (heavy and light vehicles) in Laval.
In 1984, after several years of participating in his father’s business in the evenings and during the summer, Tom Forlin accepted the position of controller within the company.
With a bachelor’s degree in business administration (specializing in finance), Tom quickly made his way and decided to expand the family business by creating a second company: the truck repair center C.T. CAM Inc.
The latter complements the former by meeting customers’ mechanical needs for the repair and rebuilding of transmissions, differentials, steering boxes, and clutches.
In 1989, Ludevic’s brother Francesco (Frank) joined the company and devoted all his energy to it. The Forlini quartet was completed in 1989 when Tom’s cousin Tony joined the administrative team after obtaining a degree in economics (with a specialization in commerce). Tony now holds the position of CEO of C.T.CAM.
A year later (in October 1990), after four years of “courage,” the two companies decided to join forces under one roof, at 3850 Léman Boulevard, in the industrial district of Saint-Vincent-de-Paul in Laval: where the foundation officially began in 1975.
Papa Ludevic, Uncle Frank, son Tom, and cousin Tony now run the most impressive tow truck duo/group in the region, with growth of 10% per year. It includes all the latest mechanical equipment, including two alignment machines for heavy trucks (10 and 12 wheels), light trucks, and motor vehicles.
