I would concur. I rarely do coils, but those steel edge protectors are a pia. I always knew there was a better way, now I know what it is.

 

LMFAO. As many of the trucks that have them end up on their sides, I guess it could be used like that if it rolled.

 

It's part of the Detroit safety package. It's a blind spot warning radar. There's a light on the passenger A pillar that flashes and it will make noise. Supposedly it can even sense a person walking there.

 

They are getting a little deformed. I double them because of the thin areas. They don't really get much use nowadays which is fine with me. For no more than they are, they are pricey. I definitely don't miss fooling with those metal edge protectors.

 

Funny story (to me, anyway).

I first saw those, and they were sitting fingers up on a deck, heel against the coil for practice loading. It was after hours, and I stared at that #### thing for the longest time trying to figure out why someone would pull chains through the coil, through those fingers and then secure them to the deck. The things that make you go hmmmmm...er...HUH? When I first saw them I thought they were made of hard iron or something, why else would they be that away against a coil instead of inside it.

 

Lol.
I have seen metal coil cuffs before but I dont know if they were homemade or store bought.

 

headed to the Bronx. You know it’s always thrilling when the company guy with the short unit that goes there all the time says “you're ####ed theres no way that truck n trailer will get down the alleyway they unload out of”
If you’re that guy, don’t say #### like that to people

 

Well, he was right though lol

 

Well ####!

 

Right about now I bet you are wishing for a 38ft flat with sliding tandems and a 170 inch cabover.
