I have since tied it up higher, but can it touch the catwalk, or must it be completely off?
I took off the ziptie too.
I was told if the lineset is wrapped, its ok to touch?
Just want to make sure.![]()
Is it legal to have a wrapped hose set on the catwalk?

After you spend 100s of thousands on a truck you get a wonky cheap pogo stick leaning with a about to be blown spring, but no your asking for trouble on the deck.
I must say your glad hands are nice.
No to hanging them on the reefer doors a expensive fix.

It is ok to have pigtail touching the catwalk. Keep an eye on it so the hard wrap doesn't wear thru.
I would get a couple of the spring retainers that mount on the bar on your cab.
Make sure the pigtail won't catch on your fenders.Feedman, Rideandrepair and Siinman Thank this. -

I was told during a DOT inspection, it’s not allowed to touch. You’ll have constant chaffing, so it makes sense.
Hang it from your upper rail. That’s what it’s there for. Get the 2nd kit “abyliks” posted. It’s what’s on my truck and works perfect, from the upper rail.
You’ve spent the money on a nice line set, take care of it.Flat Earth Trucker, JoeyJunk, Rideandrepair and 1 other person Thank this. -
You make a sharp turn and they get pinched between your trailer bottom and catwalk you got trouble either a greasy mess or there ruined its usally the power cord.
