    Hi,

    I was wondering if anyone could help identify what the black truck part below is called? It's cracked so I'm looking to get it replaced at a parts store, but not sure what the name is. I can hear constant rattling while driving after cracking it (had to do a tight turn and I believe the trailer pushed up against it). It's located outside, behind the cabin. It's part of the Freightliner Cascadia if it matters.

    Thanks in advance!

    Fairing bracket. You turned to short and got the trailer into the cab fairing. Part store won't have it. Freightliner will

    Show pics to the guy at parts counter, way easier than trying to explain.

    You folded the trailer into the cab turning hard. That means the fairing itself will need a new bracket or two. Or three. Maybe a new fairing too.

    If you don't mind my asking what are you getting into to turn that sharp? It's very uncommon to have to turn 90degrees and less common to go beyond that with a trailer it's only making the trailer tandems pivot in place.
