Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

No, I think it got down around 0 last night, but was probably about 15 or more when this was loaded mid morning. No wind, bright sunshine, it was quite comfortable!

 

Hey @truckdad, you are a major drainage or two away from Oroville right? Any flooding problems with you?

 

If the machine weighs 75k, i am just wondering how you are on 6 axles only. I see only two axles in the drive postion no jeep or third. Just curious what your axle weights might be. Thanks.

 

Are you using a mini deck or a beam trailer and what's your overall height? Thanks

 

It went through the Alpine P.O.E, and the actual axle weights are on a slip in the truck, but I am away from the truck right now. Here is roughly what they are - I'll get the actual weights for you when I get back to the truck. 12500, 47000, 55500. 40,000 empty weight.

 

What are you allowed on a tandem?

 

On a typical overweight permit you can go 55 on a tandem and 65 on a tridem in Wyoming. Our annual Idaho OWOS allows us up to 132K gross, depending on the highway, but does not specify axle restrictions. The 132K is based upon our axle spacings.

 

Interesting.

 

Neither. It's 22" loaded deck hieght. Overall height came in at 14'9". I made it out to KC this afternoon. They are going to strip it down tomorrow and unload @ 7 am Friday. This was my widest load to date. The money is good, but I will sure appreciate my next excavator or haul truck!!
