Trailer axle fucked

Fuckin Somalians

Is everything still straight and inline? Or is it going to be one of those trucks where the trailer wheels are sitting 18" to the left of the tractor tires? I see those shipping container trucks tunning like that all the time and it is so fucked up. They will ge driving down the highway with the tractor in the middle of the lane but the rear of the trailer in the other lane.

Trailer doglegs about 2 feet to the right and we just put new tires on the second axle. Looked at the suspension and only the right side is bent, left looks unaffected to the naked eye but it is twisted.

Bonus - managed to squeeze out the real reason for the pole hit - he was playing pokémon go as he was driving in the parking lot.

If you wonder about the open door on the tractor, the driver just left the truck+trailer like this to me as he was getting into his car and leaving for home. We keep a second set of keys in the office and naturally I am the one that has to get this shit fixed.

The boss is going to be very pissed in the morning after I show him the pictures.

dont work on aligning axles on trailers or trucks for that matter. may need aligned. but most likely without seeing the actual undercarrage. i.e all the bs under the trailer on the side that was hit to see if alot was bent. may need new parts rather than an alignment.

RIP. Depends on the damage to the actual frame. A simple alignment wont fix shit, that particular type of alignment system is a pain in the fucking ass as they use a big bolt with a round head that has a little piece that breaks off at a certain torque to prevent loosening. They also don't allow a whole tone of movement and tend to be very stiff as well.

Your best bet is to send it to a truck shop and get them to have a look. If it has to go far though, I would consider getting another trailer with worn out tires and swapping the new ones onto it, just in case it affects the rear axle and scrubs the new tires off.

It isn't going to be cheap no matter how you do this.

I hope you sacked that faggot

Its fucked m8, see how the chassis rail has been bent, its structural security has been compromised.
She's had the dick and it will cost a pretty penny to fix.

He is gone and not getting paid because that money will be used to offset the repair bill.

Sweet fuck, m8. The axle hanger looks fine, but is that the goddamn monocoque frame that's bent? I don't have much experience with slide axles, but if you're lucky he just bent the slider carriage, and it's only about $6000 to replace one of those.

You should post that in the Pokémon Go user forums.
