    It's because you didn't read my statement properly, which was:
    Note the including and etc. I never said you could magnaflux aluminum to begin with, so the whole premise for the question, is your error and I was trying to add additional material fact and information for those who weren't aware of those other options for different materials. Which by the way, can also include many other structural defect detection methods such as acoustic emission technology and others as well. So, where did I ever say you could magnaflux aluminum, to begin with?

    Ok. I got it. It can’t be done. Thanks for answering. Next question is for everyone else, because I know you won’t admit when you are wrong.

    Has anyone ever had/seen someone magna flux a trailer?
     
    IH Truck Guy, cke and Oxbow Thank this.

    Apparently, the only one that won't admit they're wrong is you. That apparently is the only reason for your insistence on continuing this diatribe of yours. Since you are the one that went on a tangent, and instead of answering the poster's question, you chose to instead try and dismantle my mentions of methods to discover fatigue in a trailer, focusing instead on my use of a general term (without reading the, etc), to try and impune me. You're being the rectally obtuse pig in the mud, at the moment.

    Your own quote below, should answer this question for you.

    Have a nice life.
    Finite.

    For those who actually want information of other options that can be used:

    Oink oink. I just think if you’re are going to suggest something it should be something that’s actually used as a best practice and not something a person thinks up to sound smart in front of someone with lesser knowledge. But I don’t know everything about trailers and metallurgy. So if someone has had it done please speak up. If I’m wrong I’m wrong, but until then it sounds like a trucker story.
     
    cke, IH Truck Guy, Oxbow and 1 other person Thank this.

    Friend of mine sent me this today. That doesn’t look like a good spot to find out you’re not gonna fit.

    If only his OD banner was straight. Then he would fit for sure.

    Wouldn't surprise me to find out the state put him someplace he couldn't go.

    FL put me on a 1.5 lane road today with a hard left onto a 1 lane road with a canal on both sides at 11ft Wide and 80ft long. Had to back up over a mile to the last intersection to get out of there. I had looked at the route the night before but it can be hard to judge road widths in a rural area with no references around.
