Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

Here's my thinking. I'm say 14' 6", I'm on route, I'm on the interstate going say 55.
Lots of traffic, narrow shoulder, here comes an unmarked bridge that looks a little low.
What would you do????? Stop and measure????

 

If it's under 14'6" on the interstate it should be marked.

Come on up to WI. No pole car until over 16'. Oh yeah they don't mark bridges over 15'.

I have a WI annual permit for 16'H and it's good for every federal and state highway. It's up to me to know the bridge heights if I want to run around without a pole car.

WI has a chart with all bridge clearances under 16'3" on all numbered state/federal highways.

 

Hey guys, what's the reputation on Liddell trailers?
I'll clarify, looking at a 2001 55T, tri with a 10'(?) stinger. Its listed here in GA for 45k.

Or would a better option be a 2013 Landoll 855 tri for about the same?

 

How tall is your deck usually when you are loaded?

 

26” if I have at least 100k on it closer to 30” if I have less.

mid I run in the lowest ride height I can get closer to 24”

I have 18” beam height on both my flat deck and my beam deck

on the 55 ton stretch - I was surprised that I could shim it enough to get 8” ground clearance with over 100k on the deck. Much shorter beams and I didn’t measure deck height but I bet it was about 22-24

 

Starting the week out with a empty move.

 

with a 10 wide trailer do you have to permit every move? even empty?

 

Yup! Well around here anyway.

 

So you don't own all the trailers u pull or am I misundersting this statement?

 

You’re misunderstanding
