My niece told me that I'm missing out on soooo much by not being present on social media sites.
Poor kid(s).

Mirrors are only for backing up, going down the road you don't need them.

....other than the CDL manual specifically stating "You need to make regular checks of your mirrors to be aware of traffic and to check your vehicle."

You would be surprised at how many of our trucks have come back to the yard with the PTO engaged and the driver stating that something is wrong the with transmission because it's hard to shift all of a sudden.

Hey thanks to those two steering me in the right direction I have never been more productive. Thanks to Leiffi I now have a Volvo with an automatic transmission which has spared me from the intense labor of shifting. We can’t forget Allan for showing us how great elogs are and this new giant trucker Bluetooth headset have all freed my hands to focus on my needlepoint.

I've seen some unbelieveable sh$t over 30 some years working on trucks & mining equipment. Like my boss who was a engineer for Euclid roll a 120 ton rock truck into the swamp on flat ground & re-start it with the fuel tank under water.Just one of the many funny stories that I seen.

Looks that way. Should always split the joint with a crossmember. Then split another joint with your coworkers.

What would be the best acert to start with for a swap? I think I've had enough of the B, I haven't had the greatest luck with them in the past and this one seems to be following the trend.

Just think about all those trucks running up and down the road with the same level of engineering in their frame stretches.

If they are using Chinese brake chambers they probably were set. But there’s a good chance the springs were broke in the chambers.
The good news is you don’t have a new one piece cab truck or that would be a total loss.
