I have two trucks I've converted from 22.5's to 24.5's to get the RPM's down on them. It's been tough getting my drivers to wail on my big cam...
We don't mess with anything other than Continentals now on our two equipment trailers that run 17.5's. We use a Pneu-Tek 20414 kit to mount them...
Keep us posted. I want to ditch the Delphi in my T880 as well. Bluetooth phone use works fine when stopped, but I can't take phone calls while...
You are going to get answers all over the place on this. I've owned trailers where the underlip was just as scary as the rub rail. I've had...
We run our one X15 at 1500 RPM all the time. I actually should have ordered it with lower gears since we don't even use 18 on the 18 speed, but...
My '01 Cummins powered 379 needs it's winterfront used at about 15F. My new T880 didn't need one until -20F last winter.
I have the same bumper on my T880.. I love the bumper but I can't seem to get it to quick squeaking while the truck is idling. Does yours do that?
I've dropped one trailer and my most experienced driver (both of us over 30 yrs.) has dropped one. Both were in -20F temps. Mine was a flat that I...
We run Herds on our trucks and are happy with them. Both have survived glancing hits on moose with no damage, but not a complete t-bone yet.
Cummins says 500K between overhead adjustments. I like to do it every 200K and that also gets me a look at overall condition of the top end. There...
It's most likely because Texas is using the Real ID criteria now for issuing licenses. The physical address thing is a Real ID criteria. It's a...
I'd start. It's the very first thing my manager does when she gets an application. Google, Facebook, Courtview. Every..single..applicaiton.. You...
Go rent the biggest U-Haul you can rent and spend your entire day off backing that sucker around. The 26' one should be about the same length as a...
Can you point to the regulations for multi truck small operations and safety training? I'm 8 years into this as an interstate carrier and still...
We're just finishing our first year with them. Negatives are cost, weight and having a charged battery in the drill. Positives are that in a year...
You should be fine. My new T880 runs almost identical to you. I run my 5th plate barely to the rear of center on the drives. At full drive axle...
You do not need cargo insurance or IFTA/IRP to move a truck with no trailer across state lines. You do need insurance on the truck. If you are...
When I get a flat most of the time it is the trailer, if that's what you're asking. I don't have a way to explain why.
I look back at the business plan I wrote 25 years ago to borrow the money to buy the business I now own free and clear. It was a load of BS, but...
Like I said in my earlier post, I will grab a little trailer brake to clear out the snow that builds up in the trailer drums, sometimes as often...
