Where is everyone #5

And sits down on a tire

 

When I started trucking in 1987 I was leased to Machinery Hauling out of Kenova, WV. Pop as we called him had them on every hood he owned lol. I started with a bare bones K100 hitched to a 42’ spread on springs / walking beams and a sidekit. No need for bumper guides .

Do they like technology, or are they another mindless idiot driving a white Volvo? You be the judge.

 

That's why I mentioned my "favorite" neck block, it's notched so that it sits down in my rails a little then blocked on top between the rails on the neck. Won't completely prevent the neck sliding/swinging off to the side but makes it less likely to happen.

He'll have it happen sooner or later and get a quick education on making sure he's level right to left, especially when things are wet and slippery. Fortunately as long as the king pin is locked I haven't found a situation I couldn't fix on my own with enough blocks, chains, straps and ratchets.

 

I think of @Heavy Hammer with his 56 ft in the well. You really have to plan your turns and know your truck in order to avoid screwing up with that trailer.
