I could scream!!! We are overweight by 1500 pounds to the rear of the trailer. Normally that is not a big deal…but for more than an hour now I have been trying to move the tandems. I heavily lubed the entire rail track. All four pins fully retract and do indeed clear the holes. I have tried every trick I have picked up in my 8 years of trucking…nothing seems to be working not even budging a single millimeter!! I have contacted OTRM for help so until they get us fixed, this trip is going to be delayed! Can I scream? Man, I hate trailer tandems that I can’t force to budge. I suspect a bad release valve….every time we have run into this before, that same valve was replaced which fixed everything…
