Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

Maybe around the axle housing and cross them, but you have to watch brake lines, and there isn't much room between the tires and the forks. Or, pull both ends toward the middle.

 

Around the axle housing and tie to the middle beams of the trailer works pretty good except for those brake lines, they do have a shield over them but it’s not real stout. I don’t really care for having to get under that loader to do it either

 

I don't blame you.

 

2 trips to Chicago's south side this week. Took 2 of these elbows down and brought the pump casing back to Milwaukee.

 

My daily has been at Cummins for the past two weeks. I managed to get one of those off at home. Currently rocking the red headed day cab that gets no respect.


Motel every night has it's ups and downs.
The cab looked like this.

Now it looks like this



On a smaller note. I waiting on fenders from the UK. Then I'm close to putting this to work.

 

We run between a yard and a landfill, which means our trucks operate either in a mud pit or a dust bowl. I won't deny that they end up being less than pristine. But if any of our equipment ended up looking like that, a Severe Discussion would be happening.

 

It's basically a yard truck that doesn't see the road unless we need a push truck. Bit yeah it was pretty bad.

 

Milwaukee and West Milwaukee and West Allis and the county of Milwaukee can all bite me

3 city permits 3 different city police escorts and a county permit just to
Get to the highway - almost $800 in local jurisdiction permits

City of Milwaukee requires a city permit on state routes it turns out - thanks for the heads up

How big was that?

I just run a WI annual and go wherever I want in the state including Milwaukee. I've never had a local cop bother me. Last time I called West Allis about a permit and escort they asked me if I wanted it. When I said no they told me OK have a nice day and hung up.

I've pulled a Milwaukee permit once in the past 11 years for a couple 15'10 wide rings.

That Milwaukee cop is full of ####. Not a single company running oversize in the city here pulls a city or county permit.

Wish I knew you were in town. Could've run down there. I know exactly where you went.

 

I called the state because I did not believe him and had my permit lady call as well. The state confirmed that any oversize overweight is supposed to have a city in addition to a state permit in the city limits (state route 38 is also Chase St).

I was permitted for 15 11 wide and 14 3 tall and 85 long.
It was a total #### show - I was sent to this shippers main location and built all my permits for that location.
Show up and they built the building at the other location.

trust me, from the “other” location is you are forced to follow the city route - you want the police to get you out.

I am up in Wisconsin fairly regularly now (including now) - but usually over by Madison.
