    Has anyone rented a jeep or a booster axle for their trailer? If so, where? Cost? Rental options: as in do they hook the booster to your trailer? If a nationwide service can I drop it off to their location in another state? Finally: just need the option to have an 8 axle setup. Currently I have a 7 axle setup.

    you don’t have enough neck for a jeep and your trailer is likely not reinforced to safely. Run a booster.

    plus you skill set does not support the use of either ….

    why do you insist on making every single possible mistake while tryinh to do work you are not qualified to perform?

    that 40 ton trailer is not rated for weight you are clearly trying to show horn onto it.

    let me guess you are trying to haul 80k plus stretch loads…

    My guess is you do not know why a jeep won’t add capacity to your particular set up.

    He needs a jeep and dolly so he can move scrapers. It’s a good combo to break into heavy hauling….

    Of course not. I wouldn't ever try to do that. I was just trying to do a 93k battery all dimensions legal except weight. My trailer is 45ton.

    Ive heard guys putting extra weight(over the capacity rating of the trailer) on their trailer..... That's not something I would recommend.

    I kind of understand. Of course I have zero experience and I don't know the nuances. I have read some of your guys posts from 7 years ago and y'all have been discussing this then! All angles have been worked out on this forum and please be patient with me! Don't want to trigger anyone!
