Jammed Up Trailer

[BigWheelArchives]

Topic Originally Created in January of 2007:

 

Received a call from Freetown PD to respond to the Assonet section of town for a TT-unit that tried to turn around in an area way to small for his radius. The truck ended up on a steep angle, the tandems were jammed against the trailers 5th wheel plate and the rear tandems on the trailer were off the ground. We responded with our 60 an 50 ton rotator. We lifted the TT-unit with one, and winched the truck the other way with the other rotator to prevent any damage. Job time approx. 25 minutes.
