Topic Originally Created by EdsTowing on Tow411 When I got back, it wasn't quite empty but good enough for my concerns. They filled a F250 pick up with the pavers & tools and then filled a 1 ton Chevy dump with stone... Easy hook up with a heavy steel tube going across the rear frame.. Started unhooking when I thought I should grab a pic...yes both safety chains were hooked... dperone said: That rear bumper should come standard on all trucks, it would make life so much easier. 23k on an F550? No wonder the rear studs went on vacation, the poor things are overworked. mo…

We had crazy rain & thunderstorms for most of the day while I was busy doing heavy calls. International Dump with a broken spring coming back to the shop for repairs... Windows tinted in my new whip... Uhaul 26' stuffed behind a storage facility... Got it out of there & rear hooked so I didn't have to mess with the driveline in the rain...

Had my 1st loaded unit last night with the new truck. Volvo with a coolant loss, coming up the big mountain grossed out... We send the traffic control on most Interstate calls to move people over... It works... Pulled shaft, aired tractor & service line to the trailer since we were 125,000. She did a good job starting off on the mountain. I topped the hill around 40 mph while my old Shaker would of been 25-30. It's a 5% 5 mile grade. Our shop will repair it on Monday.

Picked up a customer's Bell Helicopter and brought it to the shop for some welding repairs on the bird & maintenance on the trailer... We usually move it with the car wrecker but wanted to see how it handled with the dump truck since it's substantially shorter... Serviced the bearings and new tires to prevent any problems while we move this around this season... Delivering it back to the airport...

Going through some pictures tonight & came across a few that I never posted with my old #9. These were taken right before it moved to her new home in Indiana... The new owners are running it pretty hard so I guess it's worked out well for them. It was a great truck.

Towed this old club the other day for a broken wheel stud on the front... Tire service came out to change a flat tire & broke a stud so he still needed to be towed... Told the dispatcher it had a stump in the back... Back to our facility for repairs...

Towing a Mack anthem I was told by a mechanic that pulling all 4 axles is recommended instead of pulling driveshaft. Has anybody else heard this?

Got a call from one of our accounts to bring a truck in for a No Start problem during the 1st storm of the week... Didn't feel like laying in the slush but it was backed in and the dam box on the back looks like it was 13' on the ground? So I pulled the shaft so I didn't have any problems.
