"We purchased 30 of these for a trial period with our CMVO's and we received wonderful reviews from those drivers. After the great results from the trial period I have ordered 200 more for the entire fleet of 140 CMVO's. I definitely recommend! I shared the success we had with the sure shim and the majority of our terminals in other states have ordered for the entire terminal fleets of CMVO's." - Christopher Dewall "Sure Shim is a great product, it eliminates poor connection problems, and it protects the male-female connection pieces." - Lon Child "No more flickering or failing light with sure shim they keep the plug and pigtail tight I swear by them when changing trailers on a constant." - David Z. "I'm a transport driver for Pepsi cola and have been for 32 years. For 31 1/2 of those years when the lights on the trailer would flicker or not work at all I would search for a broken piece of pallet or stick or screwdriver, whatever I could shove into the connection at the pigtail. Sometimes it worked sometimes it didn't. “Gone are the days of utilizing whatever you can find to jam in the plug. This product is easy to use and is a sure fit to ball types of pigtails. I have told so many people about this lifesaver, I have gotten several businesses to look into, and ordering this to keep in stock. I have given drivers my shims to solve their problems of lights not staying on! In fact, I just gave my only one away to help a driver yesterday! I always carry a can of electronic cleaner, and sureshims, and have never had to get back out of truck because of lights going out, this product works very well! I do mostly drop and hooks, so I never know the condition of the female pigtail plug, and sure shims has taken care of many situations where a connection was a problem! Every driver should keep these in their toolbox, they are definitely a must have!” – Kenny Dean Wheeler “No wear, whatsoever, in my plug and/or receptacle…use shim faithfully. “Absolutely. Made it pass inspection without any trouble. Kept lights from flickering, which has been a problem for me in the past. Held plug in tightly on off-road jobs I can see these are going to make my plug and receptacle last a lot longer.“ “Craig Davies gave me a couple Sure Shims to try out last summer. Not only do they do everything as advertised, they seem to be extremely durable. They come in a package of 2 and I’m still using the first one after 6 months of continuous use in the harshest of conditions.” "Craig Davies sent me a few Sure Shims so I could try. I wasn’t sure what to think about the product as we’ve always seem to have loose or worn plugs when we pick up several trailers within a month, but I can honestly say after trying Sure Shim that problem has been solved; no more flashing tail lights, no more directionals that work on occasion; it was a quick fix. I can honestly recommend this product” “Thanks to sure shim I now know that my trailer pigtail is secure. Can’t count how many time’s ice had issues with a loose plug and having to wedge something in there to hold it in and keep my lights working thanks sure shim” “Today in Kentucky, another driver radioed that my brake lights had stopped working. Put the Sure Shim on and my brake lights started working again! Without a doubt this product saved me time and money today!!” “Thanks for inventing The Shim! I have two of them. One is tied to the pig tail. I use it all the time with our older trailers. Now I don’t have to put small sticks in to hold them in place. Your Shim is a perfect fit!” "Yes, I have. As a former driver, I would say this is an excellent, much needed product. Much obliged." “Mr Davies came by gave us a few Sure Shims to try and my guys love them they are a excellent product, we will not be without them ever again!! Thank You Mr. Davies”

A few months ago another driver gave me a Sureshim. Since that day I use the Sureshim almost every day! It's a great product and does a much better job than a broken piece of pallet.
I've been using the same one that was given to me 6 or 7 months later.
Today I brought 4 more! I should be set for the next few years!
A huge Thanks to the folks that came up with this AWESOME product!!"

“I am Craig Davies, the inventor of the Sure Shim Power Plug SAFETY Shim. I am a driver of over 25 years, coming into OTR from the dirt world… I’ve noticed on MANY OCCASION the need for a proper power plug shim that doesn’t fall out, encourage fire, or apply even more pressure to the prongs!
I currently drive for a company towing double pups, and we drop and hook often. Sometimes a few times a day…
I use my shims on both my tractor to lead trailer power plug AND on both dolly plugs as to assure good, solid connection for my lighting and abs lights..
Not only do my shims prohibit and minimize wear and tear on the prongs and internal wire connections, they also keep water and other corrosives to a minimum from getting into the connection/prongs.
I’ve had Hub Managers and Safety Managers come out to witness, while hooking, the positive of my shims….when lights won’t work due to a loose plug connection, I apply my shims and “Voila”….lights on and solid connections!!
When used all the time and every time, my shims are offering up to 3-5 times the normal life span of a plug and receptacle….which is huge; especially to larger fleets. Add up all related costs in replacing a plug and receptacle and times that by how many units one has in their fleet. Do the math….you’ll see it’s very substantial in cost savings to use Sure Shim Power Plug SAFETY Shims!!
Think about it…
Fewer tickets….lower safety ratings….fewer suits…fewer accidents and property damage….lower insurance premiums…..and much much more!
Put paper to shim a plug/receptacle you know has a loose ground….see if you don’t generate a fire..
It’s not the fix all end all of SAFETY, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction. I recommend Sure Shim Power Plug SAFETY Shims to every trucking company, driver, owner operator out there. It’s very inexpensive insurance policy that pays itself off in a hurry!
Also….it’s VERY DANGEROUS to all for a driver to have to pull into the shoulder, get out, and walk back to his/her plug and receptacle!! Especially with no lights!!
I encourage you all to at least try my shims….you won’t be without them afterwards.
Thank you”
