@@donnyabernethy2082 I added that in the video. Thank you.

Why? That is why it is install on the trailer. Where would you use securement?

@ stake pockets…

@@TNDTRANSPORTATIONLLC Why?

@@lifeontheroad_ A flatbed trailer rub rail spacer is not designed for cargo securement; its primary purpose is to protect the trailer's sidewall from damage.

@ According to who or what?

That is why I made most of these videos. Simply to help other people. Thank you.

th-cam.com/video/3iCquw2S-lg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=M5Afi-WIOz70PMah Maybe I should remove that short. Here is a better video. The drive only had 7k axles, therefore, with trailer weight and load, he was over the 14k axle rating.

Need to close up the adjuster.

I have a video on the very subject. I stated that a driver cannot overload a de-rated trailer, most people hated that video.

Not sure what you are asking?

What question are you asking?

Can’t find link. However, it was an Amazon purchase. Search hinged mount license plate bracket.

Perfect. Thanks!

I’m having trouble finding the lug nut torque. I have these exact ones in the video

@@rg8282 Lug nut torque for the 10K Dexter axle is 200 ft lbs. It should be stamped on the ring the nuts tighten against

Unfortunately, all Big Tex with mega Ramps drag. I have video of me getting stuck going up a hill into a gas station. The long the trailer, the worse the problem

@@lifeontheroad_ yeah last week i ripped the bottom bar open and tore my wires up, i'm thinking im going to take a few inches off and reroute the wires

I had a driver named Michael from Texas. He was the best of best. Wish he would come back.

@@lifeontheroad_ I wish !

@@michaelbobbiharris2587 When ever you are ready, let me know.

Why a rookie?

@lifeontheroad_ your trailers name says it all. 14GN= 7k akles x2. Failed to weigh in after getting loaded especially running non CDL

@@fritzduval Maybe a little misleading, but he did scale immediately after leaving shipper. DOT did not stop him. Load was returned.

Upgrading to a 16GN 8k axles would be great. But it is part of hotshotting as a non-cdl.

​@lifeontheroad_ you can still get 8k axles and derate to 14k...I ran with you for almost 3 years with 8k axles. They also come with 16 ply tires. I could place my load anywhere I wanted. There's levels to this stuff...I would never run 7k axles. Have you ever seen the size of the brakes on an 8k axle compared to a 7k? Almost TWICE the size. 8k axles are the ONLY answer for non-cdl. Then, if you remember, I raised the GVWR back up to the trailers ORIGINAL 20k GVWR and used it to obtain my cdl....then ran that trailer and truck apportioned for 34k! then I got the diamond c cdl trailer. Again, there are LEVELS to this game!

Sorry for any delays. Please email your request to: ohiohaulerllc@gmail.com. I have not seen any request. Yes, we are looking for o/o.

I agree. It is reported that the US government has bio-labs in Sudan. Or just sprayed in to the sky.

Hopefully you will learn how to pronounce “nuclear” before making assumptions! Unless you are referring to the way that I pronounce “nuclear”. I guess after all my years of education, that I was never teach the correct dialect for “nuclear”. Please enlighten me what prestige university that you obtained your English major at?

You should hear him talk about the Great Mud Flood 😂😂😂

Hopefully you are ready!

Thank you.

More than likely from Amazon. It is designed to go front of a semi truck.

Pre-tension is only set by first axle not. The second nut only helps lock in lock washer. If first nut is set to original position, then second will be set in its original position.

I let a driver use trailer. I am guessing that he backed into something because it is bent inwards.

2022

@@lifeontheroad_ I have a 2023 big Tex 25gn and I noticed an issue with the front jacks. When I’m unhooking from my truck and I’m lowering the jacks, once the left jack touches the ground the right one is still about 3 inches off the ground. Not sure if it’s a big deal but shouldn’t they be touching the ground at the same time? I wonder if there is an adjustment. Even it’s it’s not a big deal it pisses me off since the trailer cost me so much money and it’s brand new. Any idea?

@@disarmyou84 Hmmm. This trailer does the same thing. However, I assumed it was uneven ground. But maybe the jacks are uneven. Quality Control has been lacking on all accounts. Make sure to check all electrical connects, especially heat shrink connectors at axles for brakes. More than likely brakes will need adjusted. I just had an owner-operate with the same trailer. The wiring harness was stuck between the decking broads.

@@lifeontheroad_ yes the way they wire it it’s like they don’t know it can rub through on the contact points. It’s a shame since it cost so much.

I don’t recall. More than likely from Amazon.

@@lifeontheroad_ I just put all four on my dexter 10k this past week. $1100 after tax just for brakes. I replaced all bearings with Timken that was another $300. Hood thing I know how to do it my self or I would have been out a crap ton of money. Bad part is after I done it I found the brakes for way cheaper 😭😭🤣

It is definitely a great thing when you can replace/repair your own equipment. Not sure if you using equipment commercially, but if are and according to FMCSA, you may not be qualified to perform a brake service. Keep that in mind. I replace all four brakes on a 14GN. I found a cheap set of brakes. As I was installing brakes, I realized that the brakes were not self-adjusting. That is why the price was cheaper.

Okay

Yeap. It was mistake that I made.

@@lifeontheroad_ Hope your truck was okay. I just did a set on mine tonight. Your video and others like it motivated me to do it. Have it running right now, will probably go ahead and change the oil to. It’s at about 13% life so better do it. Appreciate you putting that video out. Thanks

I have a couple of YT shorts out there. But Yes Sir, way too long. We have been extremely busy growing the company.

According to FMCSA, only one form of securement is needed if load is under 5’ and 1100lbs “Minimum Number of Tiedowns The cargo securement system used to restrain articles against movement must meet requirements concerning the minimum number of tiedowns. This requirement is in addition to complying with rules concerning the minimum working load limit. When an article of cargo is not blocked or positioned to prevent movement in the forward direction, the number of tiedowns needed depends on the length and weight of the articles. There must be - one tiedown for articles 5 ft or less in length, and 1,100 lbs or less in weight; two tiedowns if the article is - 5 ft or less in length and more than 1,100 lbs in weight; or greater than 5 ft but less than 10 ft, regardless of weight. In the following example, one tiedown is required because the article of cargo is 5 ft in length and does not exceed 1,100 lbs. If the article of cargo were greater than 5 ft in length but less than 10 ft, two tiedowns would be needed regardless of the weight. When an article of cargo is not blocked or positioned to prevent movement in the forward direction, and the item is longer than 10 ft in length, then it must be secured by two tiedowns for the first 10 ft of length, and one additional tiedown for every 10 ft of length, or fraction thereof, beyond the first 10 ft. An example of this is provided below. If an article is blocked, braced or immobilized to prevent movement in the forward direction by a headerboard, bulkhead, other articles that are adequately secured, or other appropriate means, it must be secured by at least one tiedown for every 10 ft of article length, or fraction thereof.” Follow this link- www.fmcsa.dot.gov/sites/fmcsa.dot.gov/files/docs/Drivers_Handbook_Cargo_Securement.pdf

Thank you for the kind comment.

No. A CDL is not necessary needed, as long as weight and gvcw is under 26001lbs. However, it is highly recommended to obtain and use a CDL.
