I need help with trailer

{"text":"Hi guys.\nI took a trailer from yard and trying to slide the tandem but the wheels are spinning. It’s second time in this year 🤬. \nI saw on the YouTube: remove blue air hose and connect red one to blue glad hand, that will apply air to trailer brakes. Release trailer and tractor brakes and than slide the tandem.\nI did it but still not working, the wheels are spinning.\nI can slide the tandem to rear by backing to curb but I don’t know how to push to front.\nAny ideas???

1223218 发表于 2022-04-25 11:39:12 If your wheels are spinning while your trying to move your tandems it means the slack adjusters need to be adjusted.. if your trailer has self adjusters maybe they need to be replaced. You can put a 4x4 block of wood or something else on one of the tires to keep your wheels from spinning then rock your truck back and forth till your pins get released then try move your tandems….    If your sliding pins don’t go in hit them with a hammer till they do in..  hope it helps
