Well perhaps not a steel one. But I have seen trucks drive around with a plastic/carbonfibre stick attached to each corner of their vehicle to know where the corners are. Serves the same purpose as the steel "bar", just a lot safer and lighter to deal withYou might want to think twice about that one. Looks like something you could impale yourself on should you slip off of the bumper or fender. A better idea is to get familiar with the vehicle and know how far the front end projects.
Look at "blade guides" for snowplows (ie: http://www.amazon.com/Blade-Guide-Florescent-Orange-Pair/dp/B0043WFZPQ/ ) they are florescent orange, bendable and should work. Some are even wired with lights inside so you can see them better at night.Well perhaps not a steel one.

Shift T-case...Wreckerman, Split shifting?
I have to agree with instag8tr...I don't have a CDL but I do have a non-commercial Class A with Air Brakes. With these DLs, you reach a whole new stage of vehicle condition awareness, especially knowing that while going through weigh stations/inspection points/ports of entry, the Motor Carrier folks are just looking for a reason to place your rig out of service and/or hang a bunch of paper on you. I have to admit, after upgrading my license, my pre-trip inspections became a whole lot more thorough than they ever have been, and I had thought they were pretty thorough to begin with.Listen calm down. What I was referring to is that most of these suggestions are second nature for CDL holders. I know it doesn't require a cdl and I gave a good tip if you care to read before spouting off.
