[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 1047314, member: 18471"] If both trailers were 100% you could have left with the set, then complained on the road it didn't handle correctly and run them around. Unless you know the weights of the trailers, (where I am we go by volume, but 50% of nuts and bolts is gonna weigh more than 100% or styrofoam peanuts), you could have the heavier trailer in the rear. I've had it happen to me, both trailers 100%, the rear swayed all over the road, felt like the snubber wasn't engaged, (it was). I stopped in rest area and switched them and they rode nice and smooth. The contract says "if the driver feels the unit doesn't handle right, he/she may contact management and will be authorized to switch the unit and be paid for such time". Article 18, section 7. They are correct saying it's not a requirement but there are ways to get around it. [/QUOTE]
