    I’ve done it before, but never heard from the outside what missing a downshift with a 3 stage Jake break in the 3rd stage sounds like— now I do

    I don't like the one on I 10 at Baton Rouge over the Big Muddy. Was sitting still in jammed up traffic and the whole bridge shook when trucks went by going the other way.

    Man, I never minded that at all...maybe because it was like 10 feet under my feet.
    I just hated the high spans or the ones over a 40,000 foot gorge.

    You just wait till some young farm hand ask you where can he get a pair of hames. No problem you understanding his request, it is just that a lot of hardware do not carry them now... And god forbid he also inquires about a crupper...
