First time I've hauled these. Had no clue how to secure. So I know it's not the best looking. Good times.HalpinUout, Logan76, MACK E-6 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Lesson learned don't use straps because paint hasn't cured. I rubbed paint off to the frame color. I only used three straps one per tractor so didn't do to much damage. The guy next to me used all straps. Feel bad for him because his used them all over.

Not a load photo, but it's been a while since I've driven. This week and last week I've done more driving than office work. And my new position has changed a bit, I've become more of a full time trainer than anything else (I'm not doing and HR work). I'm not sure at this point whether I'm going to stay doing this indefinitely (I miss driving too much) but I'll wait till the new year before deciding.
My wife and I want to buy a house and start a family, and a full year on the highway running 2500-3000 miles a week is lots of money we could use right now. -
You have a tire sitting on your chain.

...Or is that by design?PeteyFixAll and Logan76 Thank this. -
Doesn't impress me, but what do I know.cnsper, sawmill, PeteyFixAll and 5 others Thank this.
-
By design because I was putting the chain at angle to prevent rolling also had I went straight down the chain would come off the tow bar because it had no holes to run through.
-
Ah, I see...
I always get nervous when I see chains not pulling straight.Logan76 Thanks this. -
You don't carry any shackles? The way you've got that chained there's nothing to keep it from tipping over and the right scenario.
-
Straps and machinery don't mix. Also can't say I'd have a tire sitting on any chains.
sawmill, PeteyFixAll, cke and 4 others Thank this.
