I know it's been a while since this video released, but that right front steer tire is kaput. You can see it while you are fiddling with the air dryer. It's missing part of the thread. When I was a driver years ago, I always felt that if the truck and I were legal, there was nothing to worry about. And it proved to be true.
An old friend was put in the brig while in the Navy the day before his birthday. When they let him out the next day, they had crossed the international date line. He missed his birthday.
Equine Chiropractor too… (horses) - I actually think the boys would benefit more with glucosamine chondroitin (with shark cartridge) - its for humans. Ours lived comfortably to age 18 years old on it. Gave her double doses the first three days to help get her moving then once a day. A dog in less pain is the best thing in the world. CBD for dogs can be given in tandem. Their quality of life will greatly improve. One more thing… You could give him some cushiony fluffy stuff to lay on/around on his bed especially in the truck. He will appreciate the comfort from the padding on already sore joints.
One thing you could try before throwing another dryer at First Class, is hook the dryer back up. If its still frequently spitting, unhook and cap off the line going to your fan clutch. (I'm just guessing you've got like a Horton,or some type air controlled fan clutch.) If it quits spitting, you've got a small air leak in the fan clutch. I've had a couple trucks come thru the shop, one, a long time ago, (I'd forgotten about), and one recently that fooled me into doing the air gov, and dryer thing. And then..ding, ding, ding, I remembered the first truck..sure as heck, it was the fan clutch. Just something to think about, good luck Kurt!
Wheee have you been Mr Smidt? I used to watch your travels all the time then you seemded to dissapear for some reason. Then watching Alice and Martine i see you caught up with them at one stage so new you were still around. Opie still looks well and ask your Vet if he knows of a Chito for dogs as they can do wonders for there hips and back the same as they can gfor us guys. Stay safe and the Pete still sound okay. Aussie Bob.
Kurt, I’m seeing millions of square feet of warehouse space being built in the Dallas/Ft Worth area. In my hometown of Midlothian I’ve lost count of the number of these ugly concrete behemoths that are being built even in what was my rural neighborhood. Huge buildings thrown up, one after the other, and every stinking one is vacant. Makes no sense at all.
When I was a youngster about nine years of age. I was drying dishes as my sister washed them. Our family pet a black and white pekingese dog that was about eight years old wanted to play like always. He was trying to grab the dish towel and jumped up to catch the end of it. He must have twisted the wrong way and ended up landing hard on the floor. He was paralyzed in the back half of his body. My dad had an appointment to see the chiropractor who was also a family friend. As they talked about things in general as my dad was leaving he mentioned what was going on with the dog. Well the doctor said that he would be willing to come down an look at our dog that evening after supper. He knew the dog from being around through the years and the dog didn't object. Well he worked on the dogs back and just like a switch the dog's back legs moved. He wasn't able to walk well but he could get his legs beneath him. The chiropractor visited two more times during the next two weeks and the dog got back on his feet. The dog went on to live till he was around sixteen years old. Our family including myself would think of going to anyone else for a chiropractor and I go to his son now who became an chiropractor and osteopathic doctor. I do believe that chiropractors can make a difference for your health and believe that those veterinarian that work on animals can help your pets.
If you wanna know about a chiropractor for your dog, I have never used one but I used a chiropractor for my horse. He had a diss bothering and he after working on him for a while he turned out OK safe Trucking good video.
The most annoying sound in the world has been a roofing crew on the building where I work for the last two days. I've been waiting for the plaster to come down. It's nice to hear the relaxing sound of First Class going down the road. I've been smelling the smoke from those fires. Some of my Canadian people almost lost their places. Safe travels, and God bless.
You got that right. I used to deal with them in Northern California 101. Just for you get into the woods Woodsman going towards Eureka. Where the Hell's Angels have their big windy. There's a big gigantic woods but there. Did sit up there and Camp there thing is they didn't bother you at night. A good there early in the morning. A wait till evening to come back down. Designo some of the trucks I was driving. They would have shot me in the truck go to the dump.🤷🏽♂️💁🏽♂️. Like the sound of that turbo whistling man power.. Keeper save👍🏽✌🏽🙋🏽♂️😊😎.
I give our dogs CBD Oil twice daily for arthritis and general health, has helped me avoid two expensive surgeries so far and our 105 pound Boxer is very active again 👍 I’m very happy with the results the past year, I hope opie and jax live many more years Brother 🤙😎😎 After they get caught up with us with the Med Beds (Not Released Yet) Then they will start treating dogs and cats ( Gets them healthy and extends their lives- just like it will do for us!!) Stay safe out there Bro 🙏
That shot going through Iowa city made me think of how over the winter and earlier this spring, between road construction in Iowa City and Des Moines there couldn't have been another crane in the state. They were all at those two sites.
Did you give Opie a bite of your ice cream? And how can you drive with the cone in your steering hand? Btw, when I was thinking about what happened to "Shiny Heiny", you said it !!! Safe travels, Sir!
That was a real awesome looking ice cream cone. Did they not have Pup Cups for furball friends? Surely Opie would have loved one of those. Smokie here in Nevada too. Washed my silver car and next day it was covered in soot. I feel for the people in Canada.
I am by Chicago just got back from repair shop had to buy new tranny since bell housing was cracked do to my month old clutch explosion and it took out inputshaft as well
HELLO KURT BROTHER I AGREE I AVOID DRAMA I DONT HAVE TIME ! GREAT IDEA ON POOCH CHIROPRACTOR NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT ! BEAUTIFUL RIDE ! BE BLESSED BE SAFE GOD BLESS YOU & YOUR FANILY 🐾🐾🐾❤️🐾🐾🐾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 you do know the guy that owns Iowa 80 also owns the Petros in Oak Grove, Mo Joplin, Mo and it used to be T/A now a Petro in kenly, NC
Yup after watching more when the air Dryer is doing that it is a bad check valve I had the same problem, But a Quick fix is just join the air lines together and Eliminate the air Dryer. For the time being,,,,,
I don’t know about dog chirp but had a friend that used a horse chiropractor and he swore the guy cured his horse that was completely lame to rideable in three months. I know they help me. Havagudun Kurt and Opie. Stay safe.
Yes..my little dog got instant relief from chiropractic adjustments on his injured spine...so much better than the steroid treatment the vet prescribed..it was a people chiropractor btw..
Saw a cartoon the other day of a car at the shop all town down to frame and the owner asks did you find that noise? Mechanic says yes here’s your bill for $1000….and your marble that was in the ashtray!😊😊. Have a great day, wish us was there with you.
Hope the new arthritis meds work for Opie & Jax. Never heard of a vet chiropractor, but have heard of the holistic vet. A lot of people swear by CBD for doggy arthritis, personally we've never given it. Take care & Safe travels!
A few years ago I had several horses and pastored a Western Heritage (cowboy) church. We were introduced to equine chiropractors and I was really surprised at the difference a couple of adjustments made with the horses. I can see where larger dogs can experience benefits from chiropractic treatment.
It is what it is. It is luck of the draw any day if you will get an inspection. It is luck of the draw if you pass or not. They may not find a violation you know of or they may call something a violation that is just fine. It is all about luck so I don't even acknowledge the blitz.
Of all the times I've been pulled over it's never been during their blitzes. Yeah I avoid drama, don't like it, don't want it. A chiropractor for a dog. Interesting. You and Opie truck it safe brother 😎
You might have a bad check valve in one of those lines as I had similar problem years ago , and if I remember rite theres a few check valves in the whole air line system.

DOT should worry more about new guys in new trucks than old guys in old trucks.

Opie says alright dad you had ice cream cone where is my cheeseburger
Think Opie was wondering where his cone was.
You should teach Opie to shift your gears while you are eating ice cream great video keep up the good work God bless from GA and stay safe
That truck stop that is gone is just 4 miles South of my house.
A lot of good fishing holes around those warehouses around there..
Be safe..Bill.

I'm sure your co driver would have appreciated an ice cream cone as well. 😂
Howdy I just found your channel and it's going to be a big helping tool for my treadmill game. Ride safe 🎉🎉
That's what I have always thought about you. You run the back roads to avoid all the fuss and muss with the DOT
And I like backroads vs interstates
I love Opie! His daddy's dog. So much alike.
Gr8 TRUCKIN Mr Kurt & Opie!!!!!!!!!😎🇺🇸💯🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊🔊💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰

My remedy for a DOT blitz, is to ride after dark! All scales are closed😅
There have been horse chiropractors for decades. Dont know about rural Iowa though. You can learn massage.
Glad you're back in the neighborhood.

I also was going to suggest Loctite. Works on the Harley.
Poor opie shame on you kurt for not buying opie a ice cream cone

@@truckingwithschmidt7120 We only have two seasons up here, winter and fire season.
One of these days I’ll pass you on these lonesome highways my friend till then keep the rhythm stay safe
40,000 lbs of brisket, sounds like enough
change the hose that goes from the compressor to the dryer or else you going to keep having that issue it usually collapse on the inside...
Prayers for safe travels out there. ✌❤ to the whole family.
If your headed to Dodge City KS or stinky town, you might keep going west on I-70 to 283 and head south.... they have the ramps closed on the 156 exit
That has to be the first time I've seen you wash one of guntrens wagons. Good strategy though. Clean units get the the pass

After that wash the truck still looks great. And so does Opie. Oh ya and your beard. Lol
As always thanks for letting me ride along,,,,,,
Nice reflective jacket.
Enjoyed the video Kurt!!! Be safe out there, an have a great Memorial Day weekend!!!
I am so glad to see you and opie back on the road. Opie ice cream. CVH.
Did you give Opie a bite of your ice cream? And how can you drive with the cone in your steering hand?
Btw, when I was thinking about what happened to "Shiny Heiny", you said it !!!
Safe travels, Sir!
We use Equine Chiropractor's here in New Zealand.
We use a trad/holistic Vet for our Mastador
He’s 10 now and doing okay even though he has hip dysplasia
The hell flys out of the Mt Joy Natl Guard unit. The warehouse is for the expanded Iowa 80 Chrome shop.
The rattle might be the air lines u hooked together. LOL!!!
I remember an old saying if you don't pull up out front they can't pull you around back.
Rebuild unloader in air compressor kit is like 25$ it will also cause your issue
That was a real awesome looking ice cream cone. Did they not have Pup Cups for furball friends? Surely Opie would have loved one of those. Smokie here in Nevada too. Washed my silver car and next day it was covered in soot. I feel for the people in Canada.

Oh okay. I like that

I'm going to try it
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 let me know if it helps Jax.
Just avoiding the drama's keep up the superb work Kurt
Thanks Wayne
My pleasure Kurt
I’ve had to bypass air dryers many times also. Remans are only as good as the man who did the “re”. And there seems to be fewer good men now days!
We have had a few bad purge kits. We just keep having to keep changing them until we find one that works. Try it
Trucker Josh sent me here ❤
Great guy and channel
Saw a cartoon the other day of a car at the shop all town down to frame and the owner asks did you find that noise? Mechanic says yes here’s your bill for $1000….and your marble that was in the ashtray!😊😊. Have a great day, wish us was there with you.
True
Yup. Roughly 90 wildfires in Alberta right now
Wow
So awesome to see you in my hometown I wish we met or seen each other greenfield is a small quiet town
Hope the new arthritis meds work for Opie & Jax. Never heard of a vet chiropractor, but have heard of the holistic vet. A lot of people swear by CBD for doggy arthritis, personally we've never given it. Take care & Safe travels!

it's the new Amazon warehouse
I put a new dryer in mine, and it’s doing the same thing so aggravating.
lol blitz week...thats vacation week
Dog chiropractors do work. I took mine to one. There is one in the quad cities if you want a number let me know.
Hoping to find one closer to home
Smoke from the Alberta wildfires.
I need some ice cream,too!
Nope, never worried about the blitz. If they want to find it, they will, real or not.
It is what it is. It is luck of the draw any day if you will get an inspection. It is luck of the draw if you pass or not. They may not find a violation you know of or they may call something a violation that is just fine.
It is all about luck so I don't even acknowledge the blitz.
Enjoyed the video Kurt first class is a nice truck stay safe and see you on the next one
does sound good Kurt, I would damage a box or two😂
We took our last German Shepherd to a doggie back doctor. Did it help hard to say, but the fact you tried is what matters.
There ya go , just watched more.
Of all the times I've been pulled over it's never been during their blitzes. Yeah I avoid drama, don't like it, don't want it. A chiropractor for a dog. Interesting. You and Opie truck it safe brother 😎
Another good video enjoyed it very much. There's a guy on UA-cam that does animal Chiropractic.
Hey buddy, keep on trucking kurt💪💪💪
You might have a bad check valve in one of those lines as I had similar problem years ago , and if I remember rite theres a few check valves in the whole air line system.
the only problem with blitz week is the rest of the year they ignore what they should be maintaining.
Forget Indiana, drop off that brisket here!
You the man!!!
Welcome back Kurt
It’s a rattle snake rattle lol
Another awesome video keep it up
Adjust the governor unscrew black cap screw driver and 38th wrench 😮
Tried that
you filmed a schenuk helicopter lol rare. I may have spelled that wrong lol
Looks good to me
We have Chinook choppers over head alot here from Elgin AFB
I haven't been to Sparkys since the fire
It's nice
"Blitz" is no different than any other time...run legal and don't drive junk.
Yep it is hard to make money with aftermarket parts!!
Aftermarket beats brand logo parts all day long. I just got a opps
@@truckingwithschmidt7120 ya my boss would agree with you but I guess that’s y he is a millionaire
I don’t think Tim will live through blitz! He is going to have a heart attack from stress!! JK.
Yes hurt Canada is on fire again hope you don't get the smell like northern minnesota
Did I just see you riding your motorcicle in davenport?
Ok why do some drivers leave the lights on while staying in a truck stop....and some don't???
Hello, always enjoy your videos. What are "skin puppies"? Thanks. Kevin
