9 foot over hang question

best bet would be to call the numbers for each state listed in the atlas. human knowledge over the phone.

 

If you have a permit service you may want to check with them. Each state is different.

 

Steel poles?

 

You will have an exempt. in AL.on escort, ms. must be less than 1/3 total overhang of whole pole.

 

Usually, it's 90 ft or more where you start running into rear escort requirements. Measure from the front bumper to the end of the rear overhang. Some of your car haulers loaded will be 82 ft long, so you shouldn't be required a pilot car.

 

i'd go 5 in the front if you can and it's legal. maybe even 6.

guys around here will stick there rebar or trusses 6 feet in the front. so they don't have to buy an AZ overlength permit. if they can keep the rear overhang under 6 feet. i was told 4 feet front by the states i've hauled in.

 

Louisiana will allow 99' 1" before requiring an escort.
