What if it Snows?

My guess is in post #7394 the spring working it’s way free.

 

Well once the spring came loose the shoes were able to move a lot... Id bet the really bad one is the bottom shoe and it was trying to twist clear out of the drum, them would bind against the drum then fly back into drum.

That spring is the main spring that holds shoes tight to the S-Cam.

Would hated to be behind this tailer when the parts started flyimg out from underneath. Ever seen brake shoes lying on the shoulder??? This is how they got there.

 

Well got a 1600 mile run from dispatch... Was given 3 days to complete. After day 1 (yesterday/last night) decided I could do it in 2 days... Dont want to sit and wait 24 hours to get unloaded... So I can take my time today and tomorrow... OR run hard and maybe get unloaded... So I took matters into my own hands... Called broker and reciever, both comfirmed that 24 hours early is not going to be a problem amd I will be able to get unloaded early.

I'm going to find out... Wish me luck.

 

Thankfully WE documents the drivers whom used their trailers. So it only takes a search by safety to see who and where the trailer was used. Yet yikes, I just wonder if the trailer had been written up and WE once again lost the paperwork in the name of keeping money in their pockets.

Yeah I know, I am biased after how poorly they treated me.

 

You’re like a ray of sunshine into the WE world.

Safety cares. It just takes a driver who cares to get it done. Period. I could’ve just taken this and dropped and blamed the next guy....that’s not professional and I don’t care that it cost me a day. I believe the company and how it’s run now appreciates that.

 

Haven’t seen brake shoes yet. That actually sounds horrifying.

 

Looking forward to seeing how this plays out. Please update me.

Due to spam, we only allow posters to live in Maine. What town in Maine do you reside in? (ok or yes is not an answer)
Oklahoma

Just a hunch, the female whom responded didnt need to live up to being a blonde

 

Had to google that.... Evidently there are 6 cities called Oklahoma in the U.S. closest to Maine is in either PA or MD. Pretty sure neither qualifies.

Where is Oklahoma, Pennsylvania in America?
