Dozer on it's side!

Actually, according to a friend of mine that lives in the area, they put it back on the same truck. The one in the pic is a 4 axle, but the pusher doesn't have duals. You cant see the tires on the pusher because they dont stick out like a set of duals would is my guess.

It came outta Kansas. Look how tall it is....hard to believe it made it as far as it did without a few fatalities along the way.

 

I was thinking the same thing. Looks they managed to lift 75 ton or so with only three!

 

@Rontonio mentioned the trailer rating before. I wonder what that trailer is rated for. It definitely took all the camber out of that trailer, and then some. I'll have to look up what a 10N without the dozer weighs.

 

Yeah I cant see how the trailer wasnt damaged badly, or maybe it was.

He prolly had it under secured anyways so it came off with ease. That's a nice looking trailer too....what a shame it was pulled by an idiot

 

@Oxbow I used to move an outfits 10N and I think it was 75 tons dressed.

 

All of the information I have for any state between Kansas and Ohio says the blade should be on a separate truck. How the hell did they make it that far without passing a single trooper that should've noticed it. I'll admit I don't haul dozers and never have.

Based on number of axles there I agree with Ron that it's a 65T at best.

 

It is a tk130- the trailer rating would be for 65 tons payload in 12’ - the same trailer I run. You can tell by looking at the flip neck length on the big neck and by the fact that it has 2 axle short neck Jeep. If it were a TK 140 the Jeep would be a longer neck 3 axle and the flip neck would be 72-84” versus 58-60”.

The deck height even squatted as far as it is will be around 24” - so best bet with the trousers sitting on the deck - probably would be 16’ tall easy.

 

Bet you never knocked one off the deck....and you musta hauled it on a 16 tire 9 axle.

 

I watched highway thru hell, I know it’s tv but it still gives you an idea of what they’ll do. Pretty amazing.

 

Guy at work pointed out that the bridge is at an angle to the road, that might have pushed it off the side.
