LovesMyTrucker Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Pictured below is how the mechanics at Nick Thomas Inc(Canadian, Tx) FIX problems on the haul trucksAs you can see, and I did circle it, the zip ties on the air compressor. Everytime my husband would release the brakes, the trailer brakes would lock up tighter than ever. He has told the mechanics for the last 6 months that there was something wrong and all they said that it was fixed. So this morning(1/28/2015) my hubby took the picture. The mechanics fixed(falls out of chair laughing) the problem.Barry, you can chime in anytime Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/38637-how-to-jerry-rig-your-braking-system/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I bet if he would have called for a hwy. safety inspection the right fix would be applied. or just send that pic. to the insurance under writer, I bet when they get their cancelation, they will get the point.
