    RGN can adjust there height. Doesn't sound like you've worked Lowboys before.

    you can figure an average liquid weighs 8lbs /gal * 50 gal barrel * 4 per pallet =1,600 lbs
    The smallest and thinest metal band has a strength of 1,525lbs @ 1/2" x 0.020" * 5 bands/pallet well within legal limit.

    the hight adjustment i speak of for offloading and setting down the front of trailer uses raise and lowers the front of the trailer for hooking and unhooking the neck of the rgn. and yes I have pulled rgn, when I started it was all manuel neck. we currently own a 50 ton 3 axle . I even got stuck on a 2x4 piece of wood at the old truckstop on exit 9 in Princeton ,wv on I-77 , that was in 1987 in I remember correctly. that was in days of mcgil specialized formerly known as home transport.

    Cozad? Those were manual. Hate on those trailers. What I was trying to express was you can set the height of your deck w/ spacers on the Goose neck.
