Calling out the COLOSTOMY BAGS

WE HAVE A WINNER FOR TODAY!!!















Had to drag this POS all the way down to Charlotte on 85, 50 miles OOR cause nowhere else is open on the weekends when I'm awake, and am now going to reap the benefits of endless traffic and hills on 85 vs flat smooth sailing on 95. THANKS DRIVER.

 

I have two winners today. Michael dropped a trailer with no defects that had slack adjuster or scam issues (couldn't figure it out exactly but basically brakes wouldn't work, then they'd totally grab, rinse repeat) and forgot to lock the tandem slider. Then devante dropped a relay with no defects that was 34500 on the trailer tandems which he drove about 175 miles from the shipper and also had a brake light out.

 

DFO - I can't seem to see the issue with the brakes on my little phone. Could you point me in the right direction?

 

Looks to me like there is .0000000001 inches of brake shoe in that picture lol

 

Yep almost no meat left on the shoe just the backing plate lol. Sorry fr the bad pic the flash throws the perspective off.

 

That was my original thought but I figured I was just missing the pad

 

seriously dude. You dont carry extra lights on you truck? 1 or 2 of each type that you, the driver, can change out? LIKE say a headlight bulb? WTF.

Was reporting to the truck this morning. Shop wasnt open yet BUT had only been closed for 4 hours by that point. I'm guessing here, but I wager that driver was there and shut down well BEFORE the shop closed for the night. Drivers side out.

 

Hell on a Cascadia rip the high beam bulb out and shove it in the lowbeam side in a pinch. Exact same bulb just a different housing/lens for hi/lowbeam.

 

At least that guy had an excuse why he didn't replace the light. The other night I saw a driver leaving the Gary OC with a headlight out and he can't use the excuse that "the shop was closed"

 

I would say that there is no excuse not to carry spares.
