The main hoist brake on my Link-Belt just gave out mid-lift yesterday

Had to emergency lower a 5-ton steel beam onto the deck, which was not fun. Anyone have a good mechanic in the Phoenix area they trust for a rush job?

Actually, that specific brake failing mid-lift isn't super common, but it's a known weak spot if maintenance gets skipped.

Heard that Link-Belt brake fail is a known issue.
