Nice to see a properly loaded truck for once. The Jonsered crane must have had a tough life with those loads.
How is steering in the winter with tri-drive, long wheelbase and kingpin pretty far back?
What is the difference between the 13t and 16t hub reduction rear axles for mercedes? They look the same and have the same ring gear diameter. I...
Does any of the axles on the trailer steer? How much can you load on the trailer? Must be over 60 tons.
I suppose it only works for Deutsch regulations. Is the 5 axle truck a standard configuration from Mercedes?
76 ton and length is 34.5m.
Saw quite a few of this type of combination this week in Finland. It could be a solution for the driver shortage in UK. I spotted them around Åbo...
Steering when it's slippery outside must be exciting. Does it even have 10 000lbs on the steer?
Does any of the NA truck maker offer a bogie that you can disengage and lift?
Why would one order a daycab with that long wheelbase?
Is that a brand new truck or a 30+ year old truck that has been restored?
On the pictures in the link it doesn't look that bad. He has 7 axles to spread the 70 tons of load on. Brakes and tires should not be that overladed.
MX engine in that one for sure :)
I drove a brand new Arcos 530 8x4 with 4 axle trailer grossing total 58 tons not that long ago. It was the slowest truck I have ever driven. Nice...
I suppose you only invest that much $$ in a special and expensive truck like concrete pumper etc.
I'm looking to buy a used euro 5 12 ton box truck to transport my offroad jeep in. I will only be driving on highways so i would like to find a...
Are the typical american trailer with jeep dolly etc lighter than a european trailer? Deck height must be the same if you order a lowboy trailer.
I wonder when US heavy haulers will start to understand the benefits of pendular axles?
Is there a height problem if you go for 275/70 on the tag axle? For safe winter driving tag axle truck is a must.
I agree with you. There are no old DAF trucks running or for sale.
