    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    Ok, a slight change of plans- I just found a gooseneck hitch that a guy is selling right around the corner from my house for $200. I going to go get it right after work and install it tonight. Now I can use my diesel 2500 with 3500 rear springs to haul it. Only issue now is getting a brake...

    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    Ok, I need to consult with Brandon, it is his trailer after all, but here is my plan. My boss has a 1992 Dodge D350 with a 360 gasser and gooseneck hitch. He used to pull large horse trailers and a boat with it all over the SE. He will let me borrow it. I want to put it on my car trailer, and...

    Sleep? what is this sleep you speak of? you mean other people stop working for part of the day? that's just crazy talk... I did get some cat naps in between blown tires and the like last night, and got an hour when I got to the house, and now we are done moving railcars, I might go sling a...

    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    E, those would be Brandon questions. It is an 8 lug pattern, that's all I know. The rims on it the center is bigger than it has to be, the tire shop had a couple of rims that would have worked, so we should have bought them and more times, but B was pretty sure it wouldn't work as the center was...

    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    Ÿwe did get the truck back to Brandon's. I'm on the way home. Its looking like his truck is down for a bit and I don't have a dually or a gooseneck hitcH. Not sure what our next move will be but we can't leave it where it is.

    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    What Brandon is thinking is we find a member with a wrecker close, fix the one tire, pick the wrecker bed off the gooseneck and put it on either his lowboy or my 270. Since we haven't blown the same tire location twice, my money is on crappy tires failing. I want to just buy 3 more, to replace...

    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    Ok thanks TY. The biggest thing is getting it somewhere safe. Don't want to go out there and the whole thing is gone. I wish I hadn't have screwed up my m915, or we had brought Brandon's M52 and lowboy. We can't believe this newer equipment is causing us so much grief. We would be done by now...

    Knoxville TN, Broke down TN i-40 eastbound near Knoxville

    Hey Ty, I should have called. Didn't think about it. The wieght shouldn't be an issue, we wieghed it and the bed is only 10k, so the trailer should be fine with 14k of capacity. We are thinking that it is the fact they are cheap chinese year old tires that finally saw some highway time under...

    .

    Well, the M814 part is true anyways... Talk with Mike about the rally, we could put you in the driver seat for the trip down, or at least copilot. Between all the trucks going from SC.
