Thanks Larry. This and the last video with the bearings were very interesting. Always been a tool guy. Worked on lots of big machinery, however not trucks or trailers. Really like these kinds of videos. What I don't understand is why people will "dislike" this kind of stuff.

They’re awesome

You should get some sponsorship from the manufacturer of that kit; that is a better job of marketing the product than anyone could create. At least you should put out word that you are willing to try out and review truck and trailer related products. As always I enjoy someone else working and explaining what they are doing. I've never worked on something that large, but appreciate the skill and knowledge. I would bet truck/trailer mechanics watch your channel. So many people on You Tube don't know what they are talking about. You have knowledge based on practical working knowledge. Been having some real wide swings in temperature and weather down here in Central Texas. Tell more stories! I saw the orange cat in your videos. You might think about getting some of these big rubber stall pads used with some livestock to lay down when you are working; they interlock and would help insulate you from the cold and the dirt. They are made from recycled tires and are available at most ranch supply stores.✔👍

That is really neat Larry! I never knew how semi trailer brakes worked. I was behind a semi the other day and his trailer brakes kept locking up. Seemed like the lightest braking would cause his wheels to lock up. What do you think was causing that? It kind of freaked me out because I thought he was having to brake real hard because of traffic.

@midnightrider1521

5 жыл бұрын

Anything is possible if you have deep pockets, ingenuity and engineering expertise. In addition to the compressor and dryer, you would need the individual wheel cylinders, S-cams to actuate the brake shoes, air lines, and brackets to mount those items. They would probably have to be custom made and have to be engineered for a vehicle that weighs much less than a tractor trailer. Good Luck!!
