RE: Jo Dog we have 2 Nik named Taddy ( as in flyin tadpole) We able to use the taddys under all our trailers all set up to use the folding gooseneckk low loaders with ramps and rollers normally with Oversize loads under permit we get 18.5t on a tandem drive and 25t on the drive dolly group using the Taddy We use the truck winch rope to hook the taddy up etc cya

We tried a pre owned ballrace turn table once it was well worn so we put new balls in. the local bearing place had 3/4" balls @ 75cents each ... or 20mm balls (near enuff same size) @ $1.90 each. now we stamdarised on a Quick Realease Turntable with a greasy plate underneath ... the main 12" diameter bronze bush is $150 to replace se we went to the UBute plastics shop and purchased 10' of waist belt size ( 10' x 2" x 1/4" ) @ $35 ... when we winch our trailers up to the QRTT with a mechanical driven winch behind truck cab there is th@ much gearing and momentom th@ we would crush the balls in a ball race turn table cya

Not sure what's go n on but in some cases the rubber 'O' rings B Tween the 2 chambers start leaking in the maxibrake and when U release the parking brake by pushing the big button in on the dash air leaks into the service brake chamber and gently applies the brakes on the oposite wheel or leaks out the quik release valve other way of checking is take the service brake hose off the maxi and see/hear if air is leaking out the brake port on the maxi ThemsTheBrakes cya

When a wheels is run loose it can wear a few items to make it un tighterable we build up the wheel spacer to take up the slack the wear created

Gr8 info Geoff our older trucks have drain taps fitted to bottom of air tanks once a week we let the tanks drain over night and note any oil or sludge on the ground next day With the compressor govonor cut out @ max 120 the commpressor is free wheeling and the air is sukd through the engine air supply if the engine air cleaner a little clogged the engine can suck oil up past the compressor piston rings and enter the wet (#1) air tank and gradully move thru the air system we also notice some trailers have the main air supply line 1/2" to charge trailer air system U need to hold the buttin in @ the cab control where by a 3/8" supply line the button dose not need to held in as the supply of air is a little less demand from the truck ifn U get my drift LOL cya

Sounds like a process of elimination if you cruising along can u take the stik out of gear as in nuetral let the engine go to idle revs then rev upto the same revs as when U hit neutral and the gear stik should slide back in to the same cog no need for clutch on this proceedure cya

When we converted 1000x20 to 11R22.5 we also ran tubed and tubless side by side in a dual set up with no worries the Diameter is the same and no worse than running different treads, wear, PSI etc the cost of tubleless is a lot cheaper than tubed + Tube + rust band cya

Before it gets blasted put 3 or 4 layers of maskin tape neatly cut to size of the Fontaine plate and warn the blasted blaster 2 B CAREFULL ...................... or else LOL cya
