    Yes. They are bowed upward when unloaded or loaded lighter than capacity. The one I saw was bowed downward and yes, it was an older steel trailer.

    Thanks for the 'splainin, 07-379.

    That looks like my bosses idea of a well secured load. So long as I don't lose it he don't care. :biggrin_25510:

    I on the other hand, won't move the truck until I"m satisfied that the load is secure.
    We have had a few disagreemets over the years about what is "good enough" to go down the road.

    I dunno what you guys are fussin about. It's still on his trailer. All he's gotta do is drive through a narrow tunnel and trim off the excess. Sheesh!:biggrin_2558:
