ARKANSAS DOT almost put me out of service

No, I pulled the buttons, on the terminal, then dropped that trailer and when the brakes set people net beeped and said, “critical braking event had occured. Saving 2 minutes before and after.”
Another good reason people net sucks.
This was back in july or so, maybe they fixed it

 

Exactly.....I’m certainly not passing judgement on anyone, but running an interstate compared to northern Ontario, in the bush, where there are no roads, is totally different. Very hard on equipment. It simply doesn’t compare. We had an instance in our bush where two guys were killed in an accident. Police came in the bush and asked why this road wasn’t in their gps. Ummm, cuz it’s not a road?? It’s frozen swamp. No road to be seen come spring. And we’d haul gross over 63500kgs most loads. Unless you’ve done it, you don’t get it. Shows like ice road truckers and highway through hell make me giggle.

 

Yep. Diff deep mud, diff deep snow, getting dragged around by D6 Cat lol.

 

I haven’t been there. That’s tuff man. I hate firing up the torch

 

it's one of the most valuable and most used tools in our shop. the ol' hot wrench, zip cut is a close second lol

 

One of the reasons I said #### wrenching on trucks. Hoes, graders and loaders may be greasy and oily, but bolts hardly ever get seized in lol.

 

I have this small torch. Will I need a better one for heating up seized parts or nuts?

 

Much bigger.

 

Oxy-acetylene is the best torch setup for heating IMO. I've gotten by in a pinch with one of these though.
