Backing up dump truck

1000 dam dollars?

OTR tires here are maybe 450 or so give or take a hundred depending.

What are you Canadians trying to do? 1000 dam dollar tires? I don't understand. And I thought I had a silver spoon.

 

Come down to Dixie sometime. I and spouse finished a 33,000 dollar home of about a thousand square foot and a few acres of mixed land, forest and field to work with. That was not too long ago. Sold it for around 46,000

 

Hey Whats up man ! im also a "NewB" in the dump truck industry just recently got with a local dump truck company all i can say is DONT STRESS ! always keep calm and cool dont worry remember YOU control the truck the truck does not control you .. when your backing up always use your mirrors stay focused and balance your cordination of the truck and where your trying to back into keep control of that steering wheel and gas dont give up man we all had to start somewhere !!

 

Use ur driver mirror keep checking passenger side but use driver side. I would use the edge of the area that hadn’t been milled up yet as a guide to drive along.

 

I'm 4 days into the job hauling asphault with a red river bottom trailer hooked up to a CAT. I'm finding it hard to stay on track too. My trailer drifts constantly and I'm not backing up straight. I was told it's the tack, it's slippery and that I have to just stay under the trailer.

Is all about your set up. If you set up straight, you'll be able to back into it easier and just chase it down. All my trainers do the same thing. Wiggle back and forth..
