    Dan Would one of your wide edge protectors laid over that back edge with a strap or two over it work better ? It would also hold the felt down and keep it from flapping much. Really enjoy your videos I have learned alot watching you. Thanks. Keep safe out there.

    @martynwardle5907 2 года назад

    Dan, Drop a 2x4 across the back of the trailer and set the pallet of angle that was moving backwards on top of it. This makes any movement of material go forwards into your tarp protectors and tarp. You minimize the movement by a strap across the floor holding the tarp down, or if it’s up against other product, use a scrap pallet on its side to prevent damage. We have similar problems carrying pallets of small lumber on b-trains here in Canada and just lifting the back of the top pallet by that 2" cures the problem of vibrating backwards.

    When angle iron slide out like that it’s called telescoping. It’s hard to always know where to start them loading but if I knew it was as long as it is I would have the guy first load the tail a foot forward off the tail. I always had a bulkhead in the front and a bulkhead on the back to keep things from sliding.

      How quick its changing. I know prices vary across the UK at the moment. My home town last week was £1.42 a litre. Down in Cornwall at the moment & the local price where I'm staying is now £1.88 a litre today which converts to £8.46 a gallon. Admittedly its miles to the next fuel station but that's just a joke in USD that converts to $11.14

    I had a guy that opened his door just in front of my tag trailer. I was working for a paving company driving an F700 dump truck with a tag trailer hauling a skidsteer. He worked with me that day and when I was pulling away he swung open his door. I didn't rip it off, but it smashed it to where it didn't shut. I had forgotten about it, been over 27 years ago. Thanks, it's still as funny today as it was then. There's even less common sense these days as there was then. I don't let what other people do bother me.

    Someone has prolly already said this but if you take a 4" strap and just fold it back and forth on the top of the angles and let it get thicker towards the middle then strap it all down with a 2" strap it will pinch the looser middle stuff tight and keep it from shifting.
