You absolutely need one of them insta 360 cameras in the cab so whenever you would want to show what up ahead, no need to physically reframe, just use the 360 footage... just a thought brother! From Canada with love!
I was driving home one night across the country and lost like 2 hours of time following a truck. I was in a Jeep with no cruise control and just got locked in following a truck. One of the craziest things.
I love going trucking with you Jax, it brings back so many wonderful memories of driving truck with my husband back in the day. That’s a really nice looking trailer for a 2008. Congratulations on finally finding one worthy of you!🤣 Safe travels always! Don’t worry about how many videos you put out, we’ll be here waiting. You’re a busy man what with family, the ranch, the music, the trucking, helping Heavy D, and all you do! God bless you all and keep you safe during these extraordinary times ❤️🙏
Glad you finally got a trailer. I know that condition and price were the challenge but you were able to overcome these obstacles. AND you got home in time for your son's football game to boot!
You're such a good Dad (and Provider for The Fam 😃😃)--and you've shown us that buying a used trailer takes a lot savvier than just kickin' the tires! ;)
they use salt, and some areas they use a thing called calcium cloride up here to clear snowy icy streets and stuff, so our vehicals and equipment gets such a beating. I hate wind when i was driving. seen many trucks ect go over from wind storms.
@@realwildwildwest Ah OK, so do you have to make sure they are well hydrated before moving? I don't think you mentioned anything about this with last year's move. Is there any preparation before haulage?
@@awesomecreationschannel actually and Surprisingly, you don’t want them full of water when you haul. If they are full of water and feed in their bellies, they end up getting each other really wet, dirty, and sloppy. I prefer to have them dry lotted for about 6-8 hours before they are loaded. Over the years I’ve noticed they handle the trip better and come off the truck in much better shape.
SO excited for you! I am all about the lights on the trailer! I now have knowledge that I did not have yesterday on everything single axel , dual axel, and I can not wait for the cattle drive!
We definitely want more than one video a week or every 10days. Ur trip to Kansas, are u going to make a long video of it? Driving, loading, unloading n washing the trailer out? Plus another video of all the upgrades u do to the trailer n welding u have to do? Jax ur a badass brother.
Congratulations on getting your new trailer. My brother hauled cattle and he lives about 30 miles from Grand Island. Seen the coal train in your video and it reminded me of all the trains that went by his house. Good luck on your cattle hauling days ahead of you! Stay safe and God bless
I went new to me truck shopping with my brother (aka my mechanic) a couple weeks ago. I looked at a truck with no power windows. I was like nahhhhh. He lit up like a Christmas tree. “It’s one less thing to fix” he says. I burst out laughing… after staring at him for a few seconds. I ended up falling in love with another truck… with power windows.
Dont know about the rest of you're fans but i found you through dave sparks yt and im the type that dont care how long a video takes to come out so please dont feel rushed would rather you not stress over us and worry about you and you're family im subscribed to some famous yt guys that wont put out videos for a month or 3 and its 15 min long and he still has 3 mill subs so dont stress about us to much we are here for you regardless how long a video takes to come out so keep on trucking
@@realwildwildwest what houston said. Your a gfreat bloke Jax would love to fly out from down under and come meet you one day. I live on a ranch and have 6 kids and they love the life.
How in the h#ll you can make buying a trailer entertaining has me completely baffled...Every year we went on vacation we lost a recap. I remember them slapping against the fender of the old Ford station wagon and we were praying the next gas station had a good used tire. Can't remember how many times I loaned my lawn mowing money to my Dad so we could get home. Still not sure why we ever tried to take a road trip :>). Your videos cross over to more aspects of life than just ranching and long hauls :>). Thank You!!!!
CONGRATS on you getting 🐄🐄 hauler! I bet it helps take some worry frustrations off your plate. Except now another thing to maintain such a circle of yeahs boos and whats😉. BE SAFE,HAVE FUN, WORK HARD, and KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!
Love all of your videos, content & Journey Brother!! Thank you for sharing. They are all very inspiring & encouraging for me to finally decide on getting in the seat of a Tractor trailer at 47 years old!!! 🦅💪🏾
@@realwildwildwest Man, You Drive Truck, Cowboy, Ranch, Raise a beautiful family and you are a Rock star !!!! Hollee So Awesome 👏🏽 Is there an album I can buy online brother??
Hey Jax, go to Ghost Town living and watch the premiere tonight so that you can hear your song your theme song used so I think Brent is making a homage to you
I heard you sing in that mine at Cerro Gordo. I really think you should try out singing that same song for the American people. I think you'd do very, very well.I could see you on any of those music shows, like "The Voice".
I used to haul cattle back in the 90 s!! I’m from Kansas. Hauled a lot out of Montana!! Wisdom, Greatfalls . Livingston , and a lot more places!! Used to stop at Eddies corner Moore Montana!! I really enjoyed the cow truckin!!!
but you can Dual Them up if you want to. If you can come up here Jax, to calgary I would love to introduce you to my boss, he has so many used wheels and tires he sells for reasonable prices. yes Allunimum wheels too. Wish I could come down there and help ya, I would love to come weld up them cracks and such for you. and help with the gates ect if they need tweeking. or brakes ect ect ect

Would what a amazing trailer 😱 It’s huge and rather luxurious compared to ours down here ( mind you we don’t drive 1000s of miles to drop off cows) Thank you 🙏 for taking us with you I have to say I love ❤️ our trailer 🤣
Nice trailer Jax.... knew you'd find one to your liking!! Glad you made it home in time for WeedMan's game!! Thanks for taking us along for the ride!!

Just hitting Nebrasker 🤪 today, Sunday, on my way to Denver for Tuesday delivery. Yup, recaps on that there scare me. I see twisted aluminum in your future 🔮. Fingers crossed they hold.
hi bud we used to run european ireland to spain & italy with pezzaioli trailers 1800 litres of fresh water on board . after first weight in before tipping we would dump the water and regain the lost weight . stay safe
We have a 53 x102 Barrett tandem axle pot. I use to haul hogs with it behind a 9400 IH with a lift axle. We put a 1/2 deck in the front of the belly and it has 3/4 dog house. We just haul our own cows now. We put 4 backup lights one on each side going down for making turns and 2 going back to see backing into chutes. And we have lights on both sides on the inside. Most of our loads was at night. We always run Virgin tires on truck and trailer. We never got over 5 miles per gallon but the truck would run most of the time as it was either hot or cold out and we would have the AC or the heat on while sleeping. We had a N14 Cummins 9 speed with 373 rear’s . Most of the time the DOT and cop’s would not bother you much have had them Flash the red lights to tell you to slow down.
Bow hauler left lane. Retired here in Stanfield Arizona lots of muumuus around here. Still have the edge to be back on the road all the time. X beaconsTime luck how to Effingham Illinois. Always love the cattle hollers as they say last of the American cowboys keep up the good work you’re all in my supper
There is a place here in Salt Lake that makes those tarps called Sharps Tarps, used to have them make tarps for the walking floor trailers we ran, and I know I saw a couple of grain trailers in there. Can give them a holler when you need a tarp again.
You remind me of how I grew up. Lived on a farm for about 12 years. Loved it but then we sold everything and moved to a city of six thousand people. I hate the city. Would rather be out in the country. I had to have a 6 th back surgery October 21 then got home from the hospital in Omaha on October 23 then I turned 49 on October 24. I will be home recouping until I see the doctor for the last post op appointment on January 19 then hopefully can go back to work. I need to find a single farmer with cattle and so on to go back to my old ways if you know what I mean. That would have been fun to watch you guys take apart and put back together the engine on you red truck. I grew up helping my dad with big equipment. I like stuff like that. I enjoy your videos. Trying to catch up on them. Take care and have a safe trip to haul cattle in Kansas.
That PDI tuner is a fantastic addition to any diesel truck! I have it on my 05 Caterpillar Acert C15 and I’m now seeing low 6 pulling a loaded reefer through the hills of PA in this Peterbilt 379. Not exactly a MPG most expect to see out of my set up 🤣. Nice purchase on the bull rack! It’s funny. Before you said you use to love all the lights but only look at them as more maintenance to worry about, I was thinking that exact thing seconds before you verbalized my very thoughts! 🤣. Stay safe!
I'm glad you love it, bro. Someone's gotta do it and I'm thankful it ain't me. 😁 I ran just a shade under 4000 this week. Dry van drops and hooks, mostly. And we run e-logs, so no cheating.
32:38 well who wants to go in the dark unknowen? at pig slaughterhouse in my country they go up and in to light and turns the trailer light off when they unloads. i assume it the same with cows idk. im doing those milkers cows. but i do know cows are not good at measure the depth when they step out/down.
Jax’s I him glad you found a trailer in you’r prize range I hope it does you well and get out there and haul the hell out of them cattle and make that money I wish you the best. And have a wonderful day PS. I hope weed mam weed win’s his football game!
I ordered a " screamin meanie " for my son who is about the same age as yours but he has trouble waking up for school and I leave way earlier for work . He is around the same age as your boy mind you he has no problem waking up for hunting, motocross, atv rides or playing horseshoes idk 😐🤔🤷
Congratulations on the new to you trailer, love the chicken lights but the down side if you add extra lights and they are inoperable. DOT will nail you for inoperable equipment. Question with the single vs a dual does it take away from axle capacity weight? Sorry I’m a old trucker who has always hauled standard dry and refer, I’ve never even hauled a spread axle down side of always been a company driver and never owner operator
www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/subtitle-B/chapter-III/subchapter-B/part-393/subpart-B I don’t know if you can follow that link, but it is the chapter and verse that specifically says the DOT cannot ticket you for in operable extra lights. I have always kept it handy just in case they try to harass me for it 👍🏼 The single axles are good for 13,000 pounds each and the center axle is good for 20,000. So as a whole they don’t affect the capacity. Great questions .
I didn’t realize cattle trailers didn’t have standard landing gear. I’m sure there is a reason behind that. If I may ask, what was the cable/ winch mounted on the front of the trailer parked next to you that you looked at for a minute?
It’s just to safe weight. Cattle trailers almost never get dropped loaded unless it’s an emergency. So they don’t need the big heavy landing gear. Cable is to hold a spare wheel and tire . Good questions.
Dang grandpa we’re you getting passed by other semis when you were rolling without a trailer? I guess with the price of diesel keeping your foot off the ole coal shoveler is the only way to roll. I remember making 20 bucks a Bull wagon for SbarS trucking to clean one out. We got done pretty quick if they were fresh. Maybe show a video of the joy of cleaning one out. If my kids ever ask what the worst job I ever had I tell them I had a shitty job once but we made it fun.
You absolutely need one of them insta 360 cameras in the cab so whenever you would want to show what up ahead, no need to physically reframe, just use the 360 footage... just a thought brother! From Canada with love!

I never thought learning about cattle trailers could be so entertaining! 😂
How do cattle get smaller and lighter during transport?
They pee and poop.
@@krisptaco I'm surprised it all weighs that much!
It is hard to believe, but they respirate lots of water vapor it also contributes to their weight loss

Congrats mate, good find! Stock trucks over there are a little different to here in Australia
We have a 53 x102 Barrett tandem axle pot. I use to haul hogs with it behind a 9400 IH with a lift axle. We put a 1/2 deck in the front of the belly and it has 3/4 dog house. We just haul our own cows now. We put 4 backup lights one on each side going down for making turns and 2 going back to see backing into chutes. And we have lights on both sides on the inside. Most of our loads was at night. We always run Virgin tires on truck and trailer. We never got over 5 miles per gallon but the truck would run most of the time as it was either hot or cold out and we would have the AC or the heat on while sleeping. We had a N14 Cummins 9 speed with 373 rear’s . Most of the time the DOT and cop’s would not bother you much have had them Flash the red lights to tell you to slow down.

Jax, how the truck running since rebuild.
She’s running like a charm . 👌🏼
Was wondering the same thing. That overhaul Detroit Diesel sounded like a top 🤩 when Jax was showing the trailer lights at night.
have you ever stop at that truck wash just south of Billings that has a hot springs and he pumps hot water from the spring with a 2 inch hose ?
Yeah. Quit using it a long time ago due to unfriendly business practices and outrageous prices. :(
Those inside lights remind me of not being able to see cows lmao
Man you got me wanting to get back into cattle hauling you need a driver 😂
Get you all set up in the cabover and go real old school 😎
@@realwildwildwest now I've seen your cabovers and I wouldn't be embarrassed to drive any of them that's for sure
Who sings your theme song and what does he say.

Oh that’s interesting !
Can you dual up those singles to allow more payload on the trailer axles?
I have enough tires to do 44k, so it wouldn’t help payload, but would give peace of mind for a flat tire.
Talk to Tim Gentry, he has guy that programs ecms and tunes.
Is it possible to find a couple of axles at a salvage yard with duals and air ride to replace the 2 singles on your trailer?
Yeah I could put extra wheels on, but so far I’ve been enjoying them alright!
Jax’s I him glad you found a trailer in you’r prize range I hope it does you well and get out there and haul the hell out of them cattle and make that money I wish you the best. And have a wonderful day PS. I hope weed mam weed win’s his football game!
He did! He finished out a real great season!
Did you get the new cattle trailer in Odessa, NE by chance?
I had seen about 3 trailers at a I think Marshal auction place just east of Odessa, NE. I’m from that area
Mooooo! 🐮

It’s just to safe weight. Cattle trailers almost never get dropped loaded unless it’s an emergency. So they don’t need the big heavy landing gear.
Cable is to hold a spare wheel and tire . Good questions.
Jax do you haul any loads to new Hampshire
I have not yet, but it’s on my list!
I’ll get 5 mpg loaded with my 379 with a 60 series Detroit hauling cattle till the wind blows then I’m at 3.5 to 4
Isn’t it crazy how the dang wind will ruin your day so fast?!
I hit a coon with my alum trailer, took out the fender .....well messed it good
We didn't see you climb underneath it and check the frame out..
Did you do that?
Yeah, it was wet on the ground so I didn’t film it. Good frame . Real clean
Dang grandpa we’re you getting passed by other semis when you were rolling without a trailer? I guess with the price of diesel keeping your foot off the ole coal shoveler is the only way to roll. I remember making 20 bucks a Bull wagon for SbarS trucking to clean one out. We got done pretty quick if they were fresh. Maybe show a video of the joy of cleaning one out. If my kids ever ask what the worst job I ever had I tell them I had a shitty job once but we made it fun.
I have that video back on my channel from a few months ago i. The spring. It’s my kids cleaning mine out for me. Go check it out , you’ll love it.
