Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

So you're going to weld an axle in front of you two existing ones? How much weight can you get on your truck tandems now without overloading the jeep?

 

Don't know - haven't loaded it yet!


Buy now that I am a 3 axle tractor, I should be able to balance the group weights up front. To run from CA to FL, I would be limited by LA to 44k per tandem. For a gross of 208k on an empty weight of 77k or so.

However in a 20k state like Oklahoma or Nebraska - my gross would fall to 200k.

A lift axle on the jeep could help me recover the lost gross but the trade off is the axle group spacing would considered close coupled in some states like WA (not that I go there).

Just working through the ups and downs of it.

 

So the rumor you'd moved to some place called 'Ooo-La-La' aren't true?

Zoe must be pissed- "every time I make new friends we move"

 

The whole neck is 20feet

Thank you so much @nate980 !

 

See told ya @superhauler it was my turn.

 

Doesn't look like it, but this thing weighs 80k

 

We've got one just like it, they're a jag.

 

The cabs seem really small and cramped. I moved one last week up to Fort Wayne. I bumped my head every time I got in it.

 

I just haul em but our operators love it. Is that the load you were asking me about?
