Does it make a difference if the rack is on the truck or on the trailer? Is one more effective than the other at stopping a load from coming thru the cab?

That's why pieces that are loaded behind adequately secured freight or a proper bulkhead don't require as much load securement/as many load securement devices. -
We had a terroristic deer leap into our truck in TX, whilst carrying bagged flotsam, wrapped in plastic, for oil wells. The load shifted. It was nasty.
We had a load of flooring, from OR, shift on backwards pallets. We used a telephone pole in WY, to pull the load back on the truck. It was nasty.
We had a load of pipe, that the consignee cascaded off the trailer. It was nasty.
We've had pipe barely hit our rack, twice. I trust our rack, and we duck. Hell, if the neg-g engages, I go to the floor.
Edit: My hubby says racks are only required in AZ.
I would encourage any Malone driver to have a rack on the truck. Our safety is too important to leave to a company.Last edited: Jan 31, 2012
