    It's 60 tons and is going from Billings, MT to Lansing, MI. Keep in mind MI frost laws are in effect.

    Is something like that driven or disassembled? I know someone that needs this hauled and will no way fit my step ;):biggrin_25520:

    Well they will probably send in a multi axle with a deck insert in it. Will have to wait for frost laws to lift as well.
    Hopefully no fool lowballs the rate..
    The dolly will be shipped separate

    I have never seen "reduced loading - frost laws" on an interstate.

    I don't have anything that can handle it right now either. I might be able to come up with some outfits that could tho.

    That is a dolly under the boom. Those are regularly road driven like that.
