    That's why I left so quick, so you guys didn't have a chance to chase me down and take it away from me...lol

    Like all those mean kids that stole my lunch money in school!

    Quite a few years ago I saw a load similar to this one laying on its side. Contractors Cargo Co. Pulling Grocer Grade W/B on Hwy 166 west of Maricopa CA. 6% grade and a pretty good super on the curve. A 60 ton and 100 ton crane went out to reload a couple days later with LOTS & LOTS of cribbing blocks to get level.

    Had to park next to a guy hauling a 627 scraper today in the Casper port. I did not get a photo because the phone was in the truck but he had 6 each 3/8" chains s3curing the scraper. Now by my calculations he was 17,000 pounds short on wll if the chains were grade100 and 23,600 pounds short if they were grade 70. They were all direct tiedowns.

    Now the thing was not going anywhere but I could not get away with being one pound under the wll. I would not even try either. If he does happen to tip that thing is coming off.
