Driving a Stretched Peterbilt

You drive your truck, I’ll drive mine.

As a side note, my 5’2” wife drove the truck seat to the floor. Said she could feel traction and control better, and reach the pedals.

I’ve never tried a taller shifter, would like to try and see if it works better for me.

 

I've been thinking about shortening my pogo stick for that reason. No issues with contact?

 

We ran our lines out the back when I pulled flatbed. No worries about getting anything tangled up on the deckplate.

 

I've thought about that too. Did you ever have issues with ice buildup on them?

 

I have to bungee it down when hauling over length product. But not a huge deal

 

My truck has a shifter extension, had it when I bought it. It doesn’t hurt my arm in the least, and while I wouldn’t have put one in it, I have decided I like it, and won’t take it out.

 

We ran a spring because we were up under our trailers so far. It also helped to keep them from getting tangled on the flap hangers if we had to turn sharp.

 

is that a steerable pusher ?

 

Yes.

 

Need to wire In a dump for that rear axle

No idea where he is but I’ve done worse, coming out of Salem MA I have to wait for a break in traffic and put the entire truck and trailer against the far curb to make a right turn and I still miss a building by about 6”, just another day, the eyes scanning everywhere and going slow is the key
