HJ Bosch & Sons Hercules is our Pretoria West heavy-vehicle workshop — truck cab repair, chassis straightening, PPG cab respray and bus body work, on the doorstep of the R80 and N4 freight routes.
353 Van Der Hoff Rd, Hercules, Pretoria West · 012 379 1933 · Mon-Fri: 8am-5pm
Hercules handles the full heavy-vehicle range: truck cabs, structural repair, chassis straightening, complete cab resprays in PPG paint, and bus and coach body work. If it drives in on a commercial chassis, we scope it here — no transfer across town first.
The branch sits at 353 Van Der Hoff Rd, minutes from the R80 Mabopane Highway, the N4 west and the industrial belt running through Pretoria West, Daspoort and Danville. For operators working the western and northern side of Pretoria, this is the closest heavy-vehicle bay in our network.
We've repaired trucks for South African operators since 1969 — three generations of the same family workshop. We work on MAN, Scania, DAF, Iveco, Hino, Fuso, UD Trucks, Mercedes-Benz Trucks, Volvo Trucks, Powerstar, Eicher and Foton, alongside LCV, panel van and bakkie fleets from every passenger marque.
Fleets get a written downtime window, written supplementary scopes the moment hidden damage shows on strip, and measurement documentation from the chassis work as part of the repair pack — the paperwork your insurer and your dealer service department both ask for.

Yes — Hercules is our Pretoria West heavy-vehicle workshop and serves Hercules, Daspoort, Danville, West Park, Gezina, Capital Park, Akasia, Wonderboom and the R80 / N4 corridor. Pretoria East operators are usually closer to our Hercules truck shop; either branch can take the work.
Single-panel or bumper repair on a truck or LCV is typically 3–7 working days. Multi-panel or full cab respray is 2–4 weeks. Major structural repair with chassis straightening runs 4–8 weeks, longer if imported OEM parts (MAN, Scania, DAF, Volvo) carry a 2–6 week lead time. You get a written timeline at quote stage and a written update if anything changes.
Yes — bus, coach and minibus body and panel repair are handled at Hercules. We scope and quote per repair, work to your operator's safety procedures and coordinate with insurers on commercial bus claims.
Yes. WhatsApp clear photos of the damage and the truck's registration to the Hercules branch line and we'll come back with an indicative figure. Final figures need the truck on the bay — heavy-vehicle damage almost always reveals more on strip than what's visible from outside.
