Landstar So Far

Yeah... the isx starter is a tight squeeze... it could be that I suppose, I just wouldn’t feel right changing a ECM without inspecting the pins, it may not show discoloration, but if it does... then I would sleep easier at night by changing it...think those isx ECMs are about $1500/1900

The starter to frame ground cable is a important ground. I remember once having an issue and my parts store had the cable for about $15. So I said what the heck I’ll change it. And sure that cable needed replacing. It didn’t look bad but maybe it was

Well Western Express redesigned the aerodynamics on the driver side of my truck at the TA last week so I'm delayed a few weeks until it is fixed. Asked the lady at landstar what the payroll cut off is on loads only thing she knew was you can get paid once a week twice a week or once a month any help here I'm use to SNI midnight Mondays get paid on Friday, wife is bugging to find out so she know if she needs to pay ahead on stuff or not.

 

We changed my dad’s starter on his ISX in his T600. We used an impact that could hit 1200 ft lbs and came up from underneath, it had two extensions on it. To me it wasn’t bad at all.

 

This is a little trouble shooting of the fan clutch solenoid, pretty straight forward.

 

Like @Dave_in_AZ says they let you know your settlement day in orientation. Of course that will get all messed around with observed corporate holidays and natural disasters........

My official cutoff is Thursday scan for a Tuesday distribution. What I have found is: as long as it is scanned in before or over the (non-holiday) weekend (and no glitches) I get paid out Tuesday.

Trip I submitted late Friday was processed Monday and was paid on the settlement this morning Tuesday.

Trip I submitted yesterday was processed this morning and will be on the next settlement.
