    Anyone know of a resource where I can find diagrams like a pdf that shows how to properly set up for each type of back? Step by step any help greatly appreciated

    I had a great one from trucking school, showed how to properly set up for each type of back. It is buried in a file somewhere.

    Look up schneiderjobs on YouTube. They have some pretty good videos that I watched when I first started pulling a van a couple years ago. I couldn’t set up properly to save my life when I went to a warehouse the first time.

    Yes, no problems getting into and out of tight spots or backing around things to hit the chute or backing around in tight yards. But I didn’t know how to set up at a warehouse and couldn’t back in without 100 pull ups at first.

    Thanks but I am not really looking for videos. I remember diagrams like step 1 step 2 step 3 showing the different truck positions to get you properly set up.

    I’d say to Google it then. The videos I referenced have drone footage from above showing where to position the truck and trailer.
