Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

Hahah, yeah.

Nice!

 

I delivered to Reitnouer the other day and got a good schooling on how flatbeds are made. It was their specialized plant....not the main plant....so some dang cool stuff going on!

 

What were you delivering? No pics?

 

Good grief I really need a new phone or better yet just carry a dadgum real camera with me!

 

I delivered 10k lbs of 1/4 inch thick stainless sheets...

 

Nice and hey at least we can see it's nice and shiny!

 

Loaded today. Some kinda tricky coated-stainless clad pieces that will hang from a ceiling..idk

Super fragile stuff, strapped over tarps to be extra gentle on product per customer request.

Plus a genie lift for the install.

Headed for 46th street manhattan Monday am.

Messed me all up: was sposed to be 2 pallets for JFK & I was gonna put 15' of another product on for Brooklyn. Now I'll have to get this off quick fast first thing and hammer back to load te other product and get it back down to Brooklyn.
2x the mileage for the same money

Yeah that's weird with your air gauge.. You would think with the load levelling SPIF requirements that all axle weights are spread for load equalization. When I am fully loaded with my axles up my gauge is sitting around 100lbs once I put them down it will drop to about 60-75... Even when I just drop the one rear and leave the front one up I believe my gauge drops to about 75lbs.. It never goes up tho in pressure always down... So that odd that yours does that... I could see if happening with the rigid axles since they are not load equalizing therefore you can bump the pressure up so much, that you would be lifting the back up and taking weight off the non life axles...

Yeah your trailer is bend more then mine I think... When I did flatbed I never did 5 axle (only 4) so I never had one like that.. So it makes sense your tire would be low to ground especially when unloaded since it would be higher once loaded since trailer would flatten out..

 

What's up with the straight truck?

Didn't know you had something other than the W9. Local short runs?

 

I dig it. Something about that city is just awesome. I love it
