Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

Well, it kinda does that a little with the air ride suspension.

 

No thanks!
Big wagons with jeeps and booster pushing and pulling every which way they can fall over easy enough, I don't want to deliberately add a peice that will allow it to rotate.
I see your idea, but you'd remove the rigidity of the trailer you need to keep them stable.

 

Sorry to see it in the ditch, glad everything's good otherwise.

A++++ on securement.

 

A east coast setup has to be rigid and push against the trailer in order to get any weight on the booster at all. The way to eliminate most of these problems is to run a nitro stinger they use hydraulics to push on the trailer and transfer weight and also a nitrogen accumulator to always for movement over humps and dips in that the hydraulics over pressure from a set pressure and release and then the accumulator brings them back to pressure after your through the dip. Nitro stingers have their own problems tho. I'm with Hammer I wouldn't want my stinger to rotate any other way than forward and back on the bottom pins.

 

Loaded up the shaft on the 21st that I dropped for balancing on the 8th. Left St. Louis this morning, headed for Hanna, AB...
Went down to N. FL and did a little cave diving while I waited for it. Bringing home my exploration tools. (The other pic)

 

I've been stuck on local heat exchanger duty all week. Did 2 90k ones Monday, 2 81k ones Wednesday, 2 65k ones Thursday, 2 81k ones today.

Tomorrow I have 2 100k crane tracks then Sunday a 110k car body.

Tuesday just moved some boom sections.

All said & done, after Sunday I will have moved over a million pounds around the Houston area this week. Only about 900 miles total though.

 

Impressive numbers!

 

Sounds like 6 on the worth of work for me!

 

With all the tests and procedures, it takes 5 business days. The only savings possible would be if it was balanced perfectly in the 1st place, then it could be shortened to 3.5-4 was MY understanding.
It took about 3lbs to balance it.
