  • Sliding your tandems to adjust your weight should be a simple and easy task. If you know what direction you need to move them it should only be a matter of minutes before you have it set to where it needs to be.

      @@jessicaw.222 Hi Jessica glad you're watching I hope the new customer service associates get a sense for what it's like to be a private fleet Walmart driver. As we've always said I'm just out here living the dream. Well that's not just a statement I believe it to be true. God has been good to me and so has Walmart.

    If the trailer has a few miles on it the groove will be to worn to hold the rod. The cure - Vice Grips. I snap a pair of vice grips on the pin when it is pulled.

    Glad I found your channel. I quir walmart 7 years ago as an Auto technician to join the Army since I got out I've been driving 8 axle heavy haul flatbed and chemical tankers for 20 months now. Soon as I get the 30 months I'm applying for Walmart again but as a driver this time. Love all the info

      Yes I would definitely get in on this before they stop hiring Nationwide like they are. If you use me as a reference where it asks you on the application if you know someone that works at Walmart then you will get a call back much faster when you put your application in. My info is: Donald Smith employee number 14609 location Red Bluff California DC 6826

    Fuel is 8lbs a gallon

      Pretty sure it's 7 lb a gallon. Back in the day when I used to haul milk I had to calculate fuel a lot and this was supposedly what it was. As far as milk goes it was much heavier it was 8.6 lbs per gallon.

      Also slightly depends on the temperature.. A gallon of diesel at 16F, for example, weighs 7.1 pounds; that same gallon at 106F weighs 6.8 pounds.

      @@ZERO-GRID yep that makes sense but as long as I know it's in a hundred pounds or less it definitely serves It's purpose to know how much fuel I have on.
