New ambulance for Oak Park

A 2012 Ford F-450 chassis with a 2013 Medtec Type I ambulance is now in service as Ambulance 613, based out of Station 1. This new unit has replaced the older 614, which was a 2003 Ford E-450 chassis with a 2004 Type III Wheeled Coach ambulance. The transition marks an upgrade in equipment and capabilities for the Oak Park Fire Department's emergency response fleet.

The new ambulance represents a shift in the department’s strategy, moving toward more modern and versatile Type I configurations. It’s great to see how the department continues to evolve its fleet to better serve the community. These photos give a good look at the vehicle and its placement within the station.

Radial Ball Bearings

Radial ball Bearings are a type of ball bearing that are designed to support radial loads, which are forces that act perpendicular to the axis of rotation. Radial ball bearings consist of several key components, including the outer ring, inner ring, rolling elements (balls), and a cage or retainer to maintain the spacing between the balls.
