    ...At which point I’d bet those load bars would wind up on the floor when the walls flex. I hate those kind and thankfully they are verboten where I work.

    And once that happens, brace yourself for the next “thump” at the next sudden stop.

    A lot of ratchet straps in the correct places might secure that bucket ...Wood under would help a lot ...

    Amazing how that works! Next time I need a brake adjustment I can just save and get a permit. Then the brakes will work fine. :):cool:

    I have haul piles of equipment and supplies in a van most wouldn't believe. It's not all toilet paper and dog food.

    But your right, the load lock is not the way to haul this!

    There’s plenty of people that stupid. I was at a stop sign in Haiti Missouri, heading to the truck stops. The dryvan In front of me took off and one of his back door burst open and a forklift was just rolling around in his trailer. He went to to truckstop and we were both getting fuel, he walked to
    The back of his trailer, scratched his head at the open door, shut it and went on with his day. Never did a thing to the lift.
