Tips for cracking the frame

Little dated history back in the 1970's guy that owned City Weld trailers designed and taught Alcoa how to build the one piece beams that went in to his trailers. That was cutting edge tech back then. Especially for a guy with a small weld shop in PA. Alcoa could not figure it out.

 

I know of at least two Rit step decks that broke in the same spot at maverick. Glass trailers with a 24k load on the back 20k on the front, never overloaded, and never had a dump valve. Just drove through a dip and broke.

 

That sucks Ruthless. After pulling a grain hopper out of fields my rule is there are two times you can unhook off the road. Never and never.

 

Well it was a blacktop parking lot; plenty of times I can admit to screwing up in life: that’s one of them.

 

It was blacktop......OMG that’s a bad deal
