Foss, Oklahoma · Whelen Master TechnicianIt's the radio code every responder knows — available, ready, on the road. We built the whole company around that one idea: when your truck rolls out of our bay, it's in service and on point, with nothing left to chance.
10‑8 Upfitting started in Foss, Oklahoma for a simple reason: emergency equipment has to work on the worst night of the year — not just look right in the daylight. Loose grounds. Bare crimps. Wiring that chafes through and takes a light bar — or a radio — down mid-call. Those are the failures that get someone hurt.
So that's what we build against. Every build is engineered to be robust and serviceable from the first connector to the last switch, because the people running these trucks are our neighbors — the departments that show up when the grass is on fire and the wind is howling. Their equipment has to work the first time, every time. Lives depend on it.
That standard is backed by training, not just talk: 10‑8 Upfitting is run by a Whelen Master Technician, factory-trained and certified by Whelen Engineering to install their emergency lighting, sirens and control systems to spec. It's a credential almost no other shop in Western Oklahoma can claim, and it's the reason your warranty, your wiring and your gear all hold up.
