Tips and Tricks of flatbedding

Or a tig welder. I would just take it to a shop, send the customer a bill for what it costs.

 

I would get a quote to replace the entire rub rail from the MFG because it will never look the same.... Then you send that bill to the company. After they cut the check then you take it to a local welder.

 

Came up with a little something that may help someone...


I got back to the yard well after dark. There are lights but not where I needed them. Had to back the RGN between a stepdeck and another RGN. Not bad except that I had to come at it from an angle and in the day there is no problem. The worklights were useless because I had to back around the corner into the spot soooo.... I put my flashlight on the corner of the stepdeck cranked her right in there. Think about that the next time you have to back in a dark location with no spotter, you can even put the light on the ground as a reference point.

 

On my other truck I had wireless remote spot light just dont mount it like I did it sideways now only rotates one way. But mounted flat just inside flareing would work great. Once I find another one I will one I will be putting one on here.
Oh little expensive but cost way less than trailer repairs 250 at tractor supply

 

In the October 10-4 truck magazine on page 23, Trux Accessories is advertising new round and oval led rights that are red for stop/turn/tail and white for backup all built into 1 light

Ok, here's a tip but nobody better laugh at me or I'll report you!

My chains are in a side box and get rusty. I have a 4 wheel drive Jeep Cherokee and hooked 2 chains at a time to trailer hitch. Then I drove through the dirt parking lot and cleaned them up real nice. Then.....one of the guys saw me doing this and cranked up the big tow behind cement mixer. Threw a bunch of sand in and took like 10 minutes and they looked brand new!
