Backing Help

Posted by Piercesisive@reddit | Truckers | View on Reddit | 3 comments

I’ve found that I favor the left side of my trailer when docking in reverse. I’m off by 2-3 inches each time. It’s enough to get the plate correctly every time but it bothers me. Any tips on how to straight back?

find a centering point on your trailer; mine has front corner marker lights center your mark; you are straight

A great feller once told me, and it has helped me every time. Once you get that trailer to kick out, you want to steer your wheel towards the danger. But don’t make such big adjustments, thats what my issue was for the longest time. I would make big adjustments then have to start over again (im a perfectionist)

Try adjusting your mirrors.
