    What is the strangest load that you did as an expediter?

    A seasons worth of athletic tape for the BC Lions Every now and they I get these skid size plastic vats of fish goo (which typically leak) for either cosmetics or vitamins, I forget which.

    The suck - bang - blow comment? If you remember your high school shop engine theory a 4 cycle engine has 4 cycles (duh) which are intake, compression, ignition and exhaust - and abreviated series of those events is "suck (intake) - squeeze (compression) - bang (ignition) - blow (exhaust)...

    Great idea but might they be anticipating pump changes due to a faulty design? Maybe the pump is made by Lucas? :)

    What is the strangest load that you did as an expediter?

    Probably to keep out the corporate spies, I guess Ford had better security and spies than GM did. :)

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    Cuaway is like a mini straight truck, I attached a photo. It's pretty easy to get it all in, I've been known to stuff 15 skids in 12 skids of floor space. You lay the first 4 skids with the 48" dimension across the frame then put the other three straight in - this will leave enough room for...

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    I know it doesn't sound like much but when you multiply X 2 it is actually it would be 3/4" making it 91-3/4"and the reason is that if a skid is in there sideways - meaning the 48" dimension runs across the frame rails then getting a jack into or out of that skid will be very tight

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    I don't drive the van but based on my use of the 5 ton, I use that first part of the track every day so based on that I would assume the driver will also if he had the option. The truck he is in now (which is virtually identical) has what looks like 1/4" door skin lining with a single opening...

    My Lucky Day

    I wonder if Canada is on the lookout for something - in 2 years of crossing every day I've been pulled for a random only twice - second time was Friday (I was also in a hurry to get done that day) and so did our other driver the same Friday. I was gonna ask if you crossed at Vancouver but they...

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    I did consider leaving them but for two reasons, I want to recess the e-track but that would leave it recessed too far plus with the box being only 91" wide adding 3/8" plywood to each side and I lose 3/4" whereas by removing the 3/4" slats and replacing with 3/8" plywood I gain and additional...

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    No sleeper going in, its a local truck and ideally I want the e-track to run all the way into the corner if at all possible, I'll have to go see what the 5 ton looks like - I never really paid much attention till just now.

    Cutaway Van Body Lining

    I'm going to be removing these slats and install plywood/e-track. I see at the front corner there isn't vertical rib and the slats extend out past the first rib. So when I go to install the plywood and e-track should the e-track also exend forward of the first rib and then add an aluminum L...

    LOL - being a former Albertan I cant disagree with that statement, it is also motorcycle weather but I'd hardly consider it "hot." :)
