Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

Awesome pics. Love me some big crawler crane action.

 

She's sharp! Congrats on the new truck. Personally believe that kw is the only way to go if you're going to be working a truck to its full potential.

 

I like this guy already

 

Is that a Bob Jones truck hauling the compressor in that last pic? If it is I'm going to run to Vernal and have a look at that four axle low pro float.

 

My project for January...the generator rotor shaft I brought in for rebuild in October. I'm taking it to St. Louis, MO for high speed balancing, then reloading it to return to the power plant it came from.
37'L X 5'6"W X 6'H weighing 99,500lbs. Running just shy of 118'L at just under 169,000lbs gross.
Boy I don't miss tarping!

What is that white stuff on ground....

Looks like a good one.

I am bouncing to White Sands to load a tank for FL

 

Never heard the old Canadian saying.... If the grass won't grow then make snowballs!

 

What he said^^^
We also use this stuff to make roads...they just don't last very long...

Where you goin in FL? And when you gonna be there?
Brought my gear along and probaby gonna bounce down to the NW panhandle to do some diving while I wait for this thing to be balanced...

 

Headed to Eglin AFB for late Monday or early Tuesday. Then nothing lined up

 

New Mexico is out of their collective minds, a 200 mile detour for a 1 mile 10w restriction?

Thankfully the White Sands guys took me through a secret entrance and across the range to the Texas side, almost made up for having to tarp a tank - lots of pokey things to cover.

Rant here - why is it trucks that are clearly illegal are allowed to load piecs that they can"t scale.......92K pc on a 7 axle with a short neck - no wonder rates suck just have a guy boot leg it. Then to make it more insulting, the guy headed out right into the 10w restriction - the beauty of not having a permit I guess you really can plead ignorance. Says right on the bills must be at least 8 axle - guess no one can count that high. A-holes are taking over.
