Vehicle maintenance schedule sheets (A, B, C, etc. as per manufacture specifications) can usually be found online or we can create one, they tend to be manufacture specific. You should also ask the company who completes your maintenance. Most shops should have their own sheets when they inspect trucks and trailers. Also, some shops will not accept you supplying them with an inspection document to fill out (as they usually have a flat rate quote for inspections)

 

Check with your maintenance company first.
