Pigtail length dry van

A dry van usually has the connections on the front-left. That means, on a right turn, you’ve got ~8’ of lines across the front of the trailer and only ~4’ extra to the truck. That’s a pretty slim amount left and your hanger springs are going to be stretched to the max, as well.

 

Depends. Not everyone has them available locally. And, I’ve seen them at $200, in a stealership.

 

I saw the pigtail / airline combo wrapped in that heavy black plastic at one of Petr0 40's or 80's or somethings was nar $300.

That's why I have all 3 loose lol.

 

If just the pigtail, go to a good electrical supply house and get the rubber covered cable with number of leads/size you need. Bout an hour with a small screwdriver and; ticky about it, a soldering gun to stiffen the ends for insertion. It will be straight, flexible. and thick cover. Last forever you do not cut..

In my truck day was about 6/8 leads of like extension cord grade. What I am referring to above is for an electric hi lift forklift using 20' wound on a reel to control the various functions. Have bought it locally in Tupelo from NESCO or Stewart C. Irby with up to 16 internal leads.

 

i was at the stealer yesterday. $80.
Almost bought 2 bottles of r134. For $288 each. I paid $450 for one last year.

Trailer place also had em couple months ago.

The electrical alone was $80 couple years back.

 

No rhyme or reason, anymore, for anything. I feel like so many are still trying to cash in on the past.

 

At 288 each, I just bring my truck in get it hooked up to the machine each year and get the thing refilled the way it's supposed to be refilled for a about $150 I do my own leak down tests and solder anything that might need to be soldered before hand. Helps that I run up north and most days don't run the ac just have little side window open to let air in though, if I was down in the heat I might change my tune

 

288 fills your truck up 7x.

7x150=750

288 will fill me car up 30x.

9.60 each time.

AND. I don't have to drive to a shop and wait.

 

buy them 134, is on its way out the door, pretty sure new stuff is like r1234 or something like that

 

134 is out the door. But for some reason. Semis are still using.

Cars were required to start using 1234 7.5 years ago.

I have a new bottle already. But don't know how much longer I want it as it gets used less each year.

12 got banned 5 years after 134 rolled out.
