    And this shipper want to wrap a chain around it to hold it together. Went ahead and threw another strap around it for measure (not quite long enough straps for a choker).

    Little load this time. Just love how the riggers use outdated specs on a piece of machinery, was supposed to be 54,000 so I only brought a flip for a total of 6 axles. The #### thing is 74,000 because the forgot to add in the extra giant chunk of steel inside it so now I'm on a hunt in the bone pile at the yard for a long-neck and a jeep but I think saddlesore has the only decent jeep we got. Wasn't sure my Swedish Meatball air bags were going to get it out of the building.

    Unfortunately due to the nature of the item and the customer I can't say what it is, where it came from or where it's going. I though the little dude in the uniform with the big gun was going to crap a purple apple tree when I got the camera out but he looked at the pictures I took and verified there's no way possible to know what's under the tarp.

    BTW, that trailer normally has about an 8" arch in it but tonight it's got about a 4" sag.

    Now I would never put 37 tons on a 35 ton trailer :biggrin_25525:

    In all honesty though I have to run it down in the morning and get an actual weight, I don't believe the scales on the riggers forklift. If it's over 35 tons I'll move it to one of our 50's.
