No need for them. They're just going to increase the tire pressure on the single axle tractors.

We still got a bunch of Jiffloc tractors seen any Jiffs in your travels?

When are all these new tandem tractors coming in to handle all these heavy containers?

Shuttle drivers will let you know.

I'm not sure, my eyes tear up when I get near one of them.

You must be extra careful when doing this, you may not clear a 13'6" bridge
BTW, always maintain 15mph to be safe.

Yes, the higher tire pressure and repaving of the roads makes bridges a problem.

I've hauled up to 32,000lbs with a single axle still scaled legal!

I pull containers out of 318, right up 55 to Willow with 50,000, and I never have a problem while driving my tandem.

Rumor has it, jiffs are to be used for transporting peanut butter only.

I have good news and bad news!!
Bad news,YRC just ordered 500 Freightliners with jiffs.
Good news, they will only use white grease, it doesn't show as bad on your clothes.

Do they still make Lubriplate?

I still have nightmares about these things.

How about trying to hook these up at a dark terminal in the middle of a snow storm with potholes a foot deep in the yard? No wonder they had so many industrial injuries!

Sure seems like it

I learned from an old time mechanic to use white Lubriplate grease on crankshaft/camshaft bearing surfaces, etc. on engine rebuilds. Helped provide good lubrication on the initial startup before oil got pumped through the dry engine block. I still have a small can of the stuff from the early 1960's.

Wow was I ever wrong....after the government's loan to us the idea actually crossed my mind that it would be real quiet on here because we would run out of things to talk about....I underestimated you guys!

I strongly support expiration dates on beer.
