you could try it, file the grieve, we order the seals and red tag it until they come in and if it’s better great if not they covered their ass according to the contract. The section 17 part you posted is the most helpful. As for section 1 The company defines safe as meeting fed requirements and their is nothing in the law about dust in cab.

I would wait until after peak because your going to be target #1 for a long time if you force them to down trucks for this during peak. Sure you can make sure you follow all methods but do you really want that kind of stress.

Open the vents to the cargo area to pressurize it, drive with the doors and windows closed, open the vent by drivers side foot to pressurize the cab, have a fan installed and blowing at all times. This all greatly helps reduce the amount of dust that gets in the truck.

My route is 200+ miles of mostly dirt and gravel roads and the amount of dust that gets in my truck is very minimal now that I started doing the above things.

This is pure gold, thank you. Tried it today and worked well

Has anybody found a way to stop the dust from coming in the back door? Local mechanics say there's nothing the can do. I see FedEx boxes without the dust and we drive on the same gravel roads. Why has this been acceptable for so long for our company? Please if you have found a solution please share. View attachment 313744View attachment 313745View attachment 313747View attachment 313748

This is old but I like it so:

Good for them. I like these guys.

But we drive on them much faster.
