Last year on Jan 29, today is just two days short of the anniversary, I broke a chassis in half with a full load of soybeans on. Here is a screen shot of my fb post from that day.
I posted it here too if you care to look it up. It was the coldest day of the year at -22 deg. But I pushed the chassis back together and repaired it enough to get home. I never did get a pic of it when it was down as I had pushed it back together before I thought of pics.
Today they tell me to pickup a chassis and go to the same shipper for a broke in half chassis. This is the pic they sent me and this is what mine looked like that day too.
This time they got in loaders to lift it off and switch it to the new chassis.
So why deja vu? Well it's almost exactly a year, same shipper, same chassis, broke in the same place, doing the same thing. The reason it broke this time is the company never finished the repair when they got it back. I had replaced the bolts, but didn't weld it because I had no welder, and the company never finished it. At least it's not -22 today, temps are around freezing.

Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
