I work in the Oil Field for a frac company, our trucks run a 24v and 12 v sytem,I'am looking for a way to regulate the 24 and 12 coming into the electronics from the power box to hold a stedly 24 and 12 volts.

Switching power supply.

If you can tolerate it being regulated to a couple of volts lower than the input, then you could use a linear regulator.
