[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 1022985, member: 42691"] Well, again, the driver I speak of delivered a trailer to another hub. When the next driver pre-tripped the trailer (he got underneath) he noticed the air tank had a weld that was busted and the tank was loose. The trailer had to off-loaded to another trailer, which made the load late. The original trailer got a warning letter. Ever since I found that out, I always check those welds, and the only way to get a good look is to get underneath. Either way, I always get underneath when I approach the driver side tires to check the brake chambers, the springs, the brackets, the bolts and the drums. Going underneath once, on the driver side, saves me time by doing everything at one time. It doesn't take me very long, and my sups never had a problem when times before, but now they are doing everything they can to pinch my times. Again, I'm not dragging my feet. I'm just satisfying myself as to the safety of my equipment. [/QUOTE]
