    Shocks?
    We don’t need no shocks, 8 bag kw heavy duty suspension rides like that all the time.

    Wow! This could explain a lot. See a number of them with a single light out, if that’s what it takes to replace it, no wonder it’s not happening.

    What sucks about dry van is sweeping the Trailer. I just had it nice and clean. Hauled a load of scrap electronics. 1 day trip, East to west. $2700 on 824 miles. I can’t imagine what a high dollar load of electronics would pay. That’s where the moneys at. Picking up a weekend run in an hour. $2600 on 624 miles.Delivers Sunday night at midnight. Two weeks out. Ready for a room, and a real meal.

    When one goes out, the others not far behind. Some claim it’s an electrical Freightliner problem. I think it’s just the hour rating expiring on the “Lifetime” LEDs.

    I’d just tape a 12v spotlight from harbor freight on the fender, order new ones from Amazon.

    If you weren't such a slacker, you would have been there earlier with ice, then a snow covering. Good times.

    Time to ride in a truck that rides smooth.
    If only KW could design a good riding suspension.
