Well Tom, I left this morinin at 6 headin for Westville,, had the M and the SH on the trailer,, just south of Argos, I lost the whole rear axle from my trailer. Had to drive the M 3 miles so I got some road wear on the ol tires HAHA! So, took the SH home, and went back to get the M,, hauled it back home,, disapointed that I would miss the last pull of the year,,,,, till I called Julie to let em know I made it back home,,, just to tell me that the pull was cancelled and they were on their way home! Well, I knew they got alot of rain up there last night, but heck, quite a few called Red, asked if it was still on as of 9 pm last night. He said it was, sooooo,, go figure. Could have been worse? Chad

Didnt call us,, or terry, etc etc,, (I think he may be mad at us still) HAHAHAHA!! Oh well! Terry's truck was one muddy mess! Last pull of the year usually is a big pull. Yeah, I get to replace both axles, it bent the front axle too. I think Im looking for a new trailer, one I can put both M's on, 5th wheel. The old trailer has got alot of use over the years! See you soon! Chad

Yep! I agree, new bearings 3 weeks ago though,, the spindles snapped off the ends of the axle tube. I know why since I left the last post,,, dad used the trailer all last week on a service call, hit a darn railroad track last week,,, Chad

Hauling accidents like that can get to be a scary situation. Glad to hear you and the tractors made it out ok.
