I'm thankful for guys like him who takes time out of his day to explain how to do his job and in as much detail as possible. Seems like a great guy. I'm thinking of getting into the dump trailer sect of trucking so this helps. I've done dump truck, walking floor and Tipper trailers as well as a little step deck, flat bed, curtainside and container while the majority of my career was Reefer and dry van. So even tho this is close to dump truck it's still completely different and to me much more complex and dangerous so yeah guys like him are a big help.

Your videos are very good. Thank you I enjoy them. The way you drive, explain what you’re doing, attention to detail, etc. you go the extra mile to explain what it takes to do it right like a professional. Reminds me of me. Lol. All kidding aside you are really doing a great service to the rookies out there. I have been driving for 25yrs. And hauled everything from oversized to coils, frameless dump etc. I was very fortunate to have been taught by grandpa,dad, at a very young age. The problem today I think is all the old school guys are dead or retired so the newer generation is really missing out. Unless they are fortunate enough to run across guys like you or me that are willing and able to pass it on and take pride and love what they do. Ain’t nothing like going down the highway in a Legacy Class Peterbilt with a 18speed and a hot rod KT Cummings roaring. They call me ( Topshelf) I’ll catch ya on the flip 10/4.

I grew up around dump trucks and dump trailers and drove them both for over 30 years and you did a great job with this one. The one thing that I do differently is put air back in the truck suspension so that keeps the truck from spinning like what happened to you when you pulled up and the other thing is with a frameless trailer I only used the hand brake because if you needed to move fast you can jam it in gear and release the brakes faster with the hand valve. Dumping a frameless in landfills for years and had many situations where it sank on one side and just being able to quickly pull up 5 feet made the difference between a good dump or a long bad day. You do a great job taking care of Idlewild's equipment Wes and it shows that you take pride in your work. A lot slobs would just run down the road and sling that material out of the wheels at other vehicles.
@Wgrippin4 жыл бұрын
Thanks for watching. Great advice on the trolly brake. I think it actually applies more pressure too. I’ve had frameless roll forward when the trailer brakes were set but wouldn’t roll with the trolly set. Plus like you mentioned it’s much quicker in case you need to act fast. Thanks for the comment and advice.

My son needs to watch this. He's too "smart" to listen to my warnings about these end-dumps laying over while dumping. The issue most prevalent for us is wind - but wet manure and compost can also freeze in large clumps, or to the trailer sides if left loaded overnight during sub-zero weather. In this part of TX there can be days and days of high winds that hamper dumping. My husband had 30+ yrs experience hauling everything from swinging meat, grain, live cattle to cucumbers, but he never, ever took that end-dump trailer for granted, especially unloading in farm fields where the surface terrain can be impossible to read.

That can be tricky and it does happen. Sometimes you can roll forward (carefully) and then backwards (carefully) and stab your brakes. Sometimes that will let it loose. Gotta be careful doing that. Sometimes I’ll lower the body and raise it again and it’ll break free. Other times if I’m not so lucky I have to shovel or at least shovel enough to try again and see if it will come loose. One time I had to have an excavator reach in and get it loose will it was in the air. That’s an extreme case and not recommended because you can tip or they can put the bucket through the walls or floor.

How can i explain to them that i can't unload on uneven terrain, muddy and with other truck tracks crossing the way where i dump? They just don't want to understand how dangerous the situation is. They think I'm doing whatever i want.

I've been running a frameless end dump for about 2 years now its an amorlite brand and I see alot of guys raise their trailer axles in the winter months when empty going down the road . I tried raising mine but when I do the abs lite stays on.

Check and see if your blinkers work on the trailer. I’m not much of a mechanic but I’ve seen this before and we had to cut the drop axle wire under the trailer at the valve box to get it to stop. If I disconnected my aux line for the drop axle everything worked normal.

Thank you! I use Final Cut Pro on a MacBook Pro. Some time lapse I use the GoPro time lapse and other stuff I use the speed settings in Final Cut Pro.

I hated hauling gypsum out of the power plants that shit would always freeze/stick in the winter even with a great liner. Talk about a long day of shoveling and cleaning that trailer out then go haul crushed glass/ ore/ soybeans etc I hauled it all in that trailer

Gypsum is tough because calcium makes it worse I think. That stuff can’t have any moisture or if it doesn’t freeze it’ll stick to the calcium 😳

@@Wgrippin yes gypsum is not problem In summer months but winter I hated it. But hey when slow you’ll haul anything to stay busy. But I went back to tank yanking life hope one day see you up there on the thruway or on 87. Peace a chicken grease keep the rubber down and the shiny side up 🤘

Make sure to hit the air dump and not the fifth wheel slide unlock, I've done that one before because the buttons were right beside each other. I had to change my pants when I pulled up and the fifth wheel slams to the back. Luckily everything stayed upright

Is wind ever a problem?
@Wgrippin4 жыл бұрын
Great question and something I forgot to mention in the video. Yes wind can be an issue. Not typically but high enough wind in the right situation could cause big issues. If it’s windy and you can, try to dump with a head or tail wind instead of a cross wind.
