    I’m not condoning the load but as far as weight he probably has less than 60,000 on the deck.

    It is probably closer to 70 but that wasn't the point of the picture. We haul 6's out of Peoria Il. on that style of bed. We have to back the machine pretty close to the back of the well to be legal on the drives. The load gauge in that truck has to be pretty close to 90. The other part of this that I should have taken a picture of was the C-frame and blade on a car trailer behind a 3/4 ton pickup.

    70,000 for s D6 without a blade and a case backhoe? That 6 is less than 40 and the hoe is less than 20. What is “legal” in the drives there?

    I’m not saying it’s ok or legal just not that heavy.

    60 on the deck, 45 empty equals 105k.
    Probably 50 on the drives. No problem.
