    M747 destroyed by crooks

    Personally, it would warm my heart to see him hanged. This scrap thievery has gotten way out of hand. Cops around here don't seem to care. The local sheriff is one of my good personal friends but our relationship has been strained over this. They seem to be more worried about the revenue...

    M747 destroyed by crooks

    Most scrap yards are operated by crooks themselves. I know we have 3 local scrap yards around here and 2 of them are as bad as the thieves themselves. The one I deal with follows the laws and regs and will call the cops if something doesn't look right. The other two at the very least look the...

    M747 destroyed by crooks

    John has a point but I'd still make him pay by whatever means necessary. There are ways to make someone's life a living he!! without a butt whipping. My buddy once had a guy steal a bunch of stuff from him (ex-employee). He knew 100% certain that he did it but didn't have enough hard evidence...

    M747 destroyed by crooks

    I take it you're not any closer to finding out who cut it off? It may be tough finding a "parts" trailer. The good thing is it wouldn't be too hard to fab from scratch. Buy the time it's said and done it may be cheaper just to buy another trailer if you can't do the repair work yourself. Steel...

    M747 destroyed by crooks

    Looks like the work of common scrap thieves myself. First off, that neck isn't made like any civilian trailer so the neck wouldn't work without extensive modification (It would be much easier to just build one from scratch). Second, If I were removing that neck to put on another trailer I would...

    M747 destroyed by crooks

    I wonder why they are so stingy with it? If I owned a store I would be more than happy to help catch a crook. I hope the OP has better luck with the cops than we do around here. We've had rampant theft at our place of business and have had no help from the cops. They will come out and write a...

    M747 destroyed by crooks

    This beats all I've ever seen and makes me boiling mad. Nail their butt to the wall if you find them. It can be fixed and be DOT legal but it will still never be "right" again. At least now you can just lower the neck to your needed 5th wheel height.
