    0761E607-2CCF-425D-A0D2-83589988CF0B.jpeg They counted and cataloged over 20 cracked welds, still in awe that they sell trailers in this condition new, no oversight and no Qc apparently..

    Hate to say it but QC on the vast majority of the smaller enclosed and flatdeck trailers is complete #### too. I spent decent money on a tandem enclosed trailer. Wiring was crap (all Scotchlock connectors).

    Yikes, glad you didn’t have an accident while in action.

    Is PJ aware of the steps you’re taking to rectify this situation?

    Devils advocate here....

    "You damaged those trailers by rolling them over like that".

    Any thoughts?

    Pj don't care what we're doing, they washed they're hands of these when they said they were not honoring the warranty's.

    No damage done, picked up with a second trac hoe be fore they were flipped all the way over, no new cracks found, all the cracks have rust that's why the welds got sandblasted for the x-ray crew and metallurgist.

    Lmfao a gentle flip isn't going to do jack to a big chunk of iron like that.

    I am glad to see you go after PJ. You have the knowledge and the equipment to show what these big ####### manufactures have become. I wish you well.
