Bit of an eye opener. I expected to see something with some serious defects and a proper man’s load. Bloody Afrikaans, pull you over for nothing. I reckon limeyphil would have got through with that.
After viewing the Wheel Nuts & Studs on the Scania in the Trucks In Africa Link, thought you might want to see a few pics from the UK on the defects subject.
10 of 10 wheel nuts loose
Trailer disc brake totally failed
Failed Centre Bearing
Insecure trailer brake chamber, brake does not function
Totally worn out tyre
Failed Trailer Brake Chamber
Trailer Brakes not working, shoes & mounts broken Rollers have come out of place Drawbar trailer, brakes so out of adjustment that they dont work
Excessive engine oil leak, from a failed oil pipe
Blown out inner tyre (driver knew) axle is also overloaded
Interesting stuff any chance of a little description of what the problem is ? for us stupider drivers
Some of them kinda hard to figure out whats what from the photo
