Post by: TopOfTheFoodChain on December 21, 2011, 10:44:39 AM: Daughter had just shot her first deer (blacktail doe-Toutle doe tag). It was in the back and we were headed home. Rounded the corner and found this guy stuck. He tore up his brand new drives trying to get moving.

His first trailer axle brakes locked up. Couldn't back up or go forward. I spun all 4 pulling him. Ended up needing one more rig (fullsize Bronco) helping pull to get the job done.

I tried to post the video but it didn't work. :dunno: We drug him about 900 yards until the brakes finally released.

Thanks! No, not Stampede, it is in GMU 556 Toutle. I don't remember the road number.

I can't answer for his competence as I don't know big rigs. I can say that all the other brakes released just fine. He tried "recharging?" the air brake system and re-releaseing it quite a few times. Didn't work. He messed around under there for a while saying words I'll not repeat here. :rolleyes: :chuckle: He was headed in to pick up loads of boughs for wreaths so he was empty when they locked up.
