We Switch to FLATBED !! Split Axle Not like Dry Van !! Day in the Life American Truck Driver W900 

🤔 As a retired 81 years old Flatbed driver, we called it a SPREAD axle not a SPLIT axle 🤣

Hey hey hey, don’t come over here messing with our flatbed freight, stay over yonder 😂

Great move you will probably get a lot more loads

I’m surprised that they didn’t use chains for securing the steel beams

Justin, I am glad people are able to see how adaptable, flexible and how you roll with the punches in trucking/transportation!!! We're in the upper 80's and low 90's in central Florida!!! I always loved hugs from the kids!!!

You were in my neighborhood Barrier farms good friend and customer of mine. I worked on that farm all through highschool. We delivered the piles of gravel you saw there

Money Pit Pete. Yeah, yeah, you've told me before you're busy making content and not lookin to watch someone else. That guy is making money very locally with a flatbed. Sometimes he does 3-4 loads in a day. Everything, precast concrete forms, topsoil and mulch. Rebar and mats for keeping equipment at construction sites from sinking. Anyways enjoy your skateboarding! Safe travels and God bless

Hello Justin , checking in just to say ' I saw the news in regards to the hail storm yesterday . I hope you and yours weren't affected by it . Have a good night .

Lot's of loads for flatbed 👍🏿

Oh yeah, he does a recap every week to add up what he's made for the week and YES we've had "" frost and freeze "" warnings the last two nights, (4/21&22) C'mon Spring!

W-9 looks good under that skateboard...💯

I ❤️ Conestoga flatbed trailers! They simplify, and speed up the tapping. Good business decision to go flatbed, Good Luck! Stay alert, and safe! 😅

Now your going to work!!!

Great move Brother🤙🏾

Good morning JUSTTRUCKIN FAMILY, Justin I just wanted to say thank you for all you do be careful and stay safe

Gr8 Footage of TRUCKIN with the skateboard!!!!!!!

Join the big big boys

Great job getting that split axle in & out of that delivery! 😎 Flatbed is the way to go!!

i did reefer before step deck flatbed……i’ll never look back. I love flatbed!!

You will get more work flat bed than freezer trailer and more money too

Hey, it's all about making money!! And you have the know how!! Stay blessed! Shiny side up and the greasy side down!!

We had snow in Colorado Springs CO Saturday it was 58 for a high. Today got to 73. Go figure.

What a great opportunity for you justin I hope it pays off with more loads

watching you and your family brings sunshine to my heart GOD BLESS

My first fly of the year

Good Video Justin, Some flat bed and step deck loads you don't tarp and some you do, hated tarping lumber loads 13' 0 ft for 86 lumber without harness and stand and of coarse windy lifting up the tarp. And didn't like Georgia Pacific wall board loads always have a pin hole in the tarp and will hit rain and then stain the wall board then have to get rid of the part loads stained. Wall board for me was the rain caser on me. Rain, rain go away, leave me alone was my little song. I know a construction out fit got heck of a deal on wall board cause I hit rain and stained almost half a trailer of GP wall board. Just needed to get off the trailer and so charged them a dollar a for 4 x8 sheet of wall board. Made a little bit for my time and free lunch. And the construction company was redoing a house a block away, Easy pleasy. Oh, one thing if you don't have a dump valve for the center axle. Then make wide turn arounds or multi back and forth turns, other wise that super single side wall becomes a big dozer blade on asphalt. I dozed up a few asphalt parking lots cause the company didn't have a dump valve with super singles. Some places put a valve on the trailer and /or better in the cab with electric switch and extra cord with electric dump valve. Then turning not so bad as you turn you just dump the air slightly while turning skidding the tire some and then stop dumping the axle to put the air on and weight back on the axle on the spread axle trailer. Usually the center or inside axle dumps. Some people have electric switches for valves for both axle dumps. Just be careful with high heavy loads as the super singles with flat bed or step deck can get the feeling like top heavy and rock back and forth from side to side in the wind. It's not a good feeling as the super single track is smaller foot print and track spacing on the road then dual wheels. Take care and good luck.

Good beautiful afternoon y'all

I’ve been trucking for 45 years and flatbed trailers like you pull I’ve never heard of a split axle They were always call spread axle7

Hey Justin, Katie and those crazy Boys.

Interesting to see you hauling a flat bed. I haul a drop deck flatbed with boats for loads. Very, very busy with work. Gotta keep an eye on the load straps to stay on and tight.

Good morning Justin. I had a great weekend

awesome video man. Love to see you doing some flatbed. prayers for your kid to feel better. be safe my brother.

Looks good with the W9, she wears it well.

With the spread axle most all drivers has a dump valve on the rear axle to make the turns easy

Woooooaaaahh!!! No way after you said you would never!!! Welcome aboard! T Dubs gonna feel on them arms more often! Lmfao. Love you guys hope to come across you one day brother!

Still praying for Cash to get better. Thanks for sharing another great video.

Man, one day you will be cruising down the ole highway in your cab over, will be an awesome feeling! Be safe buddy.

Got to love construction time. Driving in Michigan is like driving on the Oregon Trail 2.0

I hope Cash gets better. Prayers for him. Liked you video and hope you get something short on Tuesday.

About time Justin I would like to see new videos of you doing flatbed you can handle it you are a big guy 👌👍💯

Continue to keep your to keep your inspection and log book perfect as usual because you will be more obvious to State Troopers.

I've got a brand new headache rack and and a full setup of securement plus new tarps that I won't be needing anymore if you're looking.

On your next adventure with flatbed you should throw some corner protectors under them straps. Keep up the great work 👍🏽

I've pulled a skateboard and drop deck (lo pro) for years. Welcome to open deck brother!

You are all over the place, it’s good

Justin, enjoyed the video. Take care and God bless you. Bedtime for me 😴.

Everyone keeps telling me to work for someone once I get my cdl but something’s telling me oo is the way to go for my family

hopefully this will mean more profitable loads

I haven't seen a spread axel trailer around here, (Australia), since the 1970's. It's all tri axel since then.

Awesome video

I watched Allie Knight that took me to IndianaJacktrucker then Heavy Haul Tv then Steve over at FSC Trucking then one of you video's popped up after one of Warrens over at western truck and tractor repair. I like straight talking people an those I can relate to Chris Allen - Professional struggler reminds me of the different jobs I had to do working for Crossgar Poultry in Northern Ireland. Alot of people dont see all the hard work we did but as long as the fleet keeps moving and machines work we were outta sight lol.

Ok a goood load

Good Afternoon 👋 Bro .. Great Job 👍 Good Video

They’re out there Justin,those feathered mercenaries just waiting to attack !

I thought that fly crawling on the windshield at 21:15 was on my phone 😂😂😂

The load of steel would be nice at the lake property for the shop,it would be glorious!!!

Hi Justin and Tdubs and family

Get you a broker that can load you out of Huger SC . You'll load steel coils and you load them right back to Spartanburg

The words "authentic" and "Mexican" shouldn't be in the same sentence with Taco Bell! 😂😂😂

New JustTruckin? I'm here for it. Let's gooooooo!

Of Everything We See You doing for Some crazy Reason is I always Pay Attention To you Shifting Gears. I Shift Gears Just like you nice and easy No Hurry. I learned on a Two Stick Dump Truck a 5/4 Split Transmissions as in The Main Transmission then A Auxiliary Transmission Behind The Main Transmission.

I did flatbed for 10 months, I liked it a lot except the tarping part. Some customers wanted things tarped that made no sense if it got wet. The guy I worked for went out of business so that was the end of my flatbed days. Flatbed is more physical labor which is good if your a trucker.

Hey @JustTruckin there are 2 cab over freightliner coming to estate sale/auction in Matheson Colorado the 27th of April just FYI

Hello Justin. It would be nice that if the "Super Single" tires could support an empty flatbed at weigh stations and the air in either axle could be dumped raising the axle making for easier tracking and easier on the tires themselves. There must be an advantage for having the separation but I do not know what it is. Have good days!

Edge protectors are a muct for I beam !! Edges cuts ur straps. Can tell ur not a flatbetter.

Hey Justin

i could nt believe u did nt know what a marmon was they are hand made truck be safe

Allow me to throw another ditty-wah out there if I may. Consider a step deck, low profile 17.5" wheels, triplex (3-axle). It would allow you the best of combine worlds of a skateboard and double-drop (RGN without the removable neck) providing more freight versatility. Benefit by increased weight and height capacity w/less permit requirements. Additional equipment requirements that payoff in the end: load leveler/combo ramps (double ramps), 2 lift axles and over-inflate bags. Ohh yeaaa... Keep the sun to your face, the wind to your back, hold 'er between the lines and be safe out there. God's Grace and Blessings to you and family.

Told ya flatbed popping now, flops in the winter tho.

There's lots of Dry Vans with spread axles

You have to decide what you want to haul one of these days

Those round a bouts are a pain in the rear

Justin u just might love the flat bed better than drvan keep up the great work bud

100* today in the Phoenix valley, this is too soon

You know if you want to get some trailers.. you might look up the auctions in FLA in Feb/Mar that happen. Can't say what they go for (and it's an auction.. can be just about anything).. but you might just find something you're looking for.. If you have questions.. I check out C&C Equipment and their channel...

What’s up J🙏🇺🇸❤️

1st 2 rear straps should be spaced within 5' ft. Same on front.

I suspect with your fan base you could set-up and sell out concert at the Heritage Centre with artists among your fans with you as MC!

The tarping is the only thing I have a problem with when It comes down to flatbed 😢 I hate it

the good thing about farm unloads are if you get stuck they got a tractor to get you out!

The new estimated population of Atlanta and the metro area is 6.3 million people

advice: don’t ever jackknife a flatbed spread axle because your load can tip over or even worse pop your trailer out of the fifth wheel. trust me i’ve seen it happen more than once.

Being from Texas, Taco Bell IS NOT authentic Mexican food. Lol

That was a National Guard Armory you went by if that was Hwy 49 . Whataburger is good eats around here. Dont know about the Texas ones

It would be interesting to see if there is any difference in fuel mileage

Spread axle not split axle. 10'2" spread on center. Just sayin. Former flat bedder

Hey what’s up bro how are you much love

Have you heard anything or seen the truck you gave away a few years ago?

Hello, Justin. Hope you'll weekend with good.

Can you do a video about your story? I’d like to go somewhat the same route

It's called a spread axle.

Its ductile iron water main pipe looks like 8-12” piping

I have family in spartanburg sc

Spread axle is the correct name from a flat beder..

I don't know if you've ever mentioned this I was just thinking about does your truck have power dividers or lockers

You have a very lively household

those geese were eyeballing you.

Hello 👋
