    Use a chalk to mark where you put your load at the start of your trip and then check it out after you stop to see if it shifted

    Congratulations bro, love the channel. For future reference, try and keep your binders on the right side of the trailer, that way if you do have to stop in mid transit to tighten down the chains, you dont have to be exposed to the traffic on the highway.

    Hows it going Chris! Just some tips on your ELD (you prolly know it already). Be sure that when your in the yard, put yourself into On Duty - Not Driving (so you can save your drive time). An if they will have you wait longer then 25m, just go ahead an put yourself into Off Duty to save your 3hr clock. Then when they are ready, go back into On Duty - Not driving, then when you leave the yard, go ahead an go back into On Duty - Driving. Gotta save that drive time when you can! Also, be sure you include in your Pre Trip that one of your lights are out, so if you get pulled over you can let them know that you are aware, just to save your own ass lol. Man, that truck set up looks amazing! Drive Safe.

    I learned from being a loader and working with a lot of drivers you should pluck your straps and listen for singing noises, that will tell you if the straps are tighten enough ,depending on the material you’re hauling because some material you can’t tighten as much because it will damage

  • @reed51
    @reed51 2 года назад +8

    Congrats on the first load! Few tips tho, those chains gotta get checked the most. They will always loosen up. Took a rubber tire back hoe to az from Dallas(17k lbs). At least two chains got loose every hour because the tires would bounce. second tip, go on Amazon n get those window shades for the ram at night time. I have them on my 3500 but I’m sure the windows are close in size. They make a huge difference But everything else looks good. N you picked the same size tarp from everything tie down as I did when pro haul told me to go there.

Great job with the videos also, It won't be long before you're looking at 50K subscribers in the rear view. Please stop playing with DOT Police. I know you're going to buy an air compressor too keep in your tool box and get as much use out of the tires you have before buying new ones. Thank You
