    I've been in the shop 3 times in 5 months! I'm at KW in Dallas to get CEL figured out. Been here since 10! Man, this place is slow. Gotta go to another shop after I get out and get a tire fixed... KW can't or won't take a nail out of a tire and plug it for some reason...

    Quick question.... How the hell do you keep one of these irrigation loads from walking left/right? I got it as tight as the shipper would let me and the 10 miles back to truck stop the stupid pipes on bottom walked almost 4".

    How wide is the load? Throw on some pipe stakes?

    I havent picked up there yet, but I might be heading to Columbus Nebraska tomorrow. Maybe I'll get a load out of there.

    The load it 2" from the rub rails. It walks inward and the top walks out. It's a major pita. Columbus is 21 miles from here so good chance you will get one. There was 3 of us DH 120 miles here for these.

    I was supposed to head up there from nucor in jewwett tx this morning, but Dallas KW is taking forever! Maybe they'll still send me on that load in the morning, not sure if they got it covered yet.

    as for a solution to your problem, I have no idea!
