ROFLMAO 😂 🤣 🤪

YOUR EITHER A CLOWN 🤡 or an 1D1OT 🃏

you can’t raise the air suspension - it ONLY has 2 settings - RIDE AND DUMP 🤦‍♂️

AND IT PAINFULLY OBVIOUS YOU HAVE NOT BEEN AROUND LONG, HAVE YOU EVER DRIVING AN OLDER “BUCKBOARD”?

Trailers are structurally designed the same way as when tractors AND trailers had buckboard suspension, you basically drop and air ride the same dam way as a buckboard

And YOU DO NOT CRANK THE LANDING GEAR HIGHER THAN THE 5Th WHEEL

THAT IS A BAD HABIT TO GET IN TO BECAUSE THE TRAILERS AIR RIDE LEAKS DOWN ON MOST OLDER TRAILERS

THEN YOU HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM HOOKING THE TRAILER UP WHEN YOUR ALL BY YOURSELF IN A DARK DROP LOT SOMEPLACE

WHAT HAPPENS IS THE TRAILER KING PIN OVER PASSES THE 5th WHEEL AND GETS CAUGHT ON THE TOP OF THE DOVE ( THE BEND TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK - NOT THE OPENING THE KING PIN PASSES THROUGH)

BUT YA… YOUR THE F’N BOSS, YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS…

All of these comments saying that he didn't empty his air bags when that's not something you do, especially if your truck doesn't have a switch to empty them. You lower the dolly legs until they touch the ground, not leave them 2 inches off of the ground so that when you pull out from under the trailer it whams down real hard on the truck, and when the next driver hooks to it he can hardly get the truck under it without having to shove hard and ram into the kingpin. If you lower them to touch the ground then it will be at the right height to unhook and hook back to easily. I've had to pick up trailers before where the previous idiot that dropped it left the dolly legs 4 inches off of the ground and it was loaded with 42,000 lbs. Even though my truck had a switch to lower the suspension it didn't help because my tires were higher than the trailer, so I had to crank the hell out of the handle to get it high enough for the tires to go under it. I called the idiot that did it every cuss word in the book plus some new made up words because there was simply absolutely no freaking excuse for that stupid shit.

I've always lowered the dolly until it touches the ground and it unhooks perfectly and hooks perfectly. It's how I was shown to do it and how it should always be done because the next truck that hooks to the trailer you're dropping might not be able to empty their air bags and if you leave the dolly 2 or 3 inches off of the ground then they will have a hard time getting under it, plus the trailer is going to slam down on your truck when you unhook.

@pohldriver

26w↑12

Yeah, that hissing you hear are the bags dropping. The landing gear was off the ground because the trailer lowered onto the ground. You never let the bags fully deflate before pulling out because the fifthwheel may not drop down. The next trailer you back under will get two holes punched in the nose. You leave your bags inflated when backing under so the tractor picks up the trailer before contacting the kingpin. It reduces stress on the landing gear, guarantees contact with the apron, and nearly eliminates the opportunity to jump the fifthwheel or high hooking.

1. Trailer is loaded, you can tell this when he pulls away & it drops.......... he should have raised trailer height on tractor air suspension & then wind legs down so it’s higher ....because a loaded trailer sinks the tractor height down.
2. Because it’s loaded & it’s good practice.....when unhooked pull forward 10 inches or so & then lower tractor suspension to lower trailer down on to its legs gently.... this prevents trailer legs & winding gear damage, it also lets the driver know the legs are actually down & hasn’t forgotten to wind them down.
3 then pull forward & clear the trailer.
4 by raising the legs & tractor suspension at the beginning it makes it easier for the next guy to couple up & prevents more damage to tractor unit trying to get underneath.

@firefighterpk2440

You said all that and for the most part you wasted your breath. Dolly down so the pads just touch the ground, drop the tractor suspension and pull up till the trlr clears the 5th wheel then give it a bit to make sure the trlr doesn't sink. The next guy to hook it drops his suspension to get under it, then airs it up before he gets to the pin. As close as he dropped this to the other trailer, he better leave the pads up a couple inches then drop the air, so the next guy can raise it off the ground and pull forward enough to crank up the landing gear.

@tomasperalta3961

You really have no idea how air suspension works. It’s self-leveling, that trailer dropping is simply a result of gravity. It’s not going to drop any faster or slower, because the speed the truck pulls out from under the trailer affects the trailer drop speed more than the weight of the trailer. And that truck will sit at the same height whether there’s 30k lbs on the fifth wheel plate, or 10 lbs. If you’re going to be a fucking knob, at least know what you’re talking about.

Not all trucks have the switch to drop the air out of the airbags I’m in a truck now that’s a 2019 and it’s the first one that I’ve driven that doesn’t have the feature and it just makes my job that much more annoying 😂

@randywendt9148

no he didn't

@bernainmolina7481

Im not a truck driver yet but i can only assume to drop the airbags is to lower the truck frame to ensure the trailer was on the ground and to avoid damage to the trucks rear end

@kennetheugene6402

He did you can hear the air escaping , he didn’t pull out slow or pause with the rear axle underneath for a couple secs to make sure the gears will hold the dolly legs.

I would suggest raising the landing gear a little bit more so when the next guy backs under it, he can hook up the airline and pull it out.

Just after you clear the King Pin by about a foot, you Pause, dump your Air Bags to Set the Trailer Down on its Landing Gear to Insure that the Landing Gear doesn’t Collapse with out your Tractor Supporting it.
Roll forward ONLY when the Fifth Wheel breaks contact with the Trailer. Once clear re-inflate your Air Bags.

Before backing trailer in lower landing gear legs within one inch of the ground . Dump air spring air , legs will settle to the ground , pull away slowly . When latching back up inflate air spring to lift landing gear off the ground . This way you will not drag the landing gear when pulling out , trailers too close to crank landing gear .

@TheOpendoormedia

1y↑17

The only thing I would have done, at the 35 years of experience, completely dumped airbags empty before pulling out.
But at least he did lower his land gear and then raised it just high enough so that when he picks it up later or when somebody else picks it up, the weight of the trailer would push down hard enough on the truck as it is backed underneath the deck plate to actually lift the landing gear off the ground.
In this tight situation All he has to do is hook on the airline and pull forward and his pads would be at least an inch off the ground giving him clearance of the second trailer when he gets landing gear past the nose of the trailer to completely roll up the landing gear and complete his pre-trip of the equipment.
So many of these inexperienced fools will have the landing gear scrape the ground as they backed trailer up in this tight situation, unhook the lines and pull forward but when backing back underneath it, there is not enough play to get the pad off the ground so now you're screwed.
Always leave about an inch between the pad and the ground and drop your airbags.
That way you're not screwed or screwing somebody else who comes in to pick up the equipment.

I stood back and watched a driver in a company truck try to muscle the tractor under the trailer, fail !! The driver broke a shear pin in the tractor's driveline. The landing gear was pressed into the asphalt tothe top of the wheel on the landing gear and tearing up the asphalt.
Roll on Tri-state Trucking, Joplin, Mo. 🙏👍

@TheOpendoormedia

One thing I've learned while I was running flat top was always have boards to go underneath the landing gear so the landing gear would not sink in asphalt.
That little piece of experience while watching somebody else not do this paid off over the years.
8 2x4 cat approximately one and a half feet long is all that is needed.
Bottom boards facing one direction, next set of boards facing 90° angle to the bottom board.
No sinking, no embarrassment, and no calling boss/ former boss of how stupid you're really are and how expensive it would be so he will have proof of how stupid you really are.

How many times have you seen the landing gear collapse? I’ve seen it once in 37 years. Not a big risk. Parking too close to the trailer beside you is what he did wrong.

@timerickson7056

@@jhask64 well the most memorable was a Bradley fighting vehicle laying on it side at Maersk Tacoma WA . Memorable beyond that lots especially in newer industrial areas during the first hot summer asphalt gets soft. So soft motorcycle kickstands will sink another biggy is when the shear pin either falls out or shears due to dry landing gear the driver lowers the landing gear and not look pull out with one landing gear not down. Ive been in about every area of the trucking industry for a lot more years than you and owned a trucking company and was able to enjoy reading accident reports too often. Things like leaving landing gear only retracted a couple inches to save time then ripping the landing gear off on the first railroad crossing . A too common practice in local trucking where a driver can handle a dozen different trailers every day. Landing gear shit happens way to often. Landing gear fubars are very very common. And EVERY DRIVER INVOLVED MADE THE SAME MISTAKE. THEY DIDN'T STOP AND WAIT FOR IT TO SETTLE.
Your argument reminds me of a "experienced" driver that didn't want to listen about specific laws and requirements for his runs.
A few weeks later thank God I didn't own that company because that guy got the company a BIG FINE $750,000 BECAUSE THE DRIVER WAS HAULING HAZMAT WITHOUT THE HAZMAT MANUAL.
THE FINE WAS REDUCED TO UNDER $50,000 UNDER CONDITION OF TERMINATING THE DRIVER.
A little knowledge is dangerous when experience causes dangerous shortcuts .
A new driver is most likely to have a accident within their first 6 months and decreases each month until the 2 year mark it levels out until the 5 year mark when there is a sharp increase in driver error accidents . Experience can and. Often does cause complacency .
Be careful out there

I'll tell you what he forgot he forgot to leave enough room for people to walk between the trailers so the next driver, aka me, can actually roll the dollies back up when I hook onto the trailer. Other than that, everybody can nit pick, but he didn't do anything wrong in my opinion, and I've been driving for 32 years. Also, I've never seen a trailer that had the dollies fail, I'm sure it's happened sometime somewhere and somebody here will tell me all their stories, but I've never seen it or spoke to a driver that had it happen.
