[QUOTE="Johney, post: 4575563, member: 10995"] Apparently the air lines were left open on the rear trailer and it backfed air to the rear trailer brakes causing them to heat up and catch fire. I heard that the guy who originally built the set had a problem getting to the meet point and had to stop and rebuild the set causing him to be late to the meet point. I guess he never closed the air lines and the meet guy who had a 5 hour trip back and was already late just hooked up and hauled ass so about 20 miles down the road guess what. There must have been just enough drag as to not stop the trailer yet still heat the brakes up. Once that happens forget it it. [/QUOTE]
