Leaving Flatbed

It's a challenge, you answered your own question. Pulling a box isn't exactly...difficult.

 

no, but backing into some of them docks can be. LOL.

 

good luck driver,stay safe.........

 

I started out pulling 53' containers in downtown Chicago. Now, there isn't a dock or spot I can't get into with this 5' shorter skateboard.... but now I added 60" to the wheelbase, so I'm back in the same boat. i moved a van trailer out of a dock last week so i could get unloaded and it took me just a few seconds, came right back to me. Plus I think backing up something with walls is much easier for me to judge..... and not having the spread axle grabbing helped too.

 

You'll get it all figured out. Just remember the rear overhang, but since you were pulling a 53' flatbed, you should already be used to that.

Also note that your MPG may go down quite a bit now that you have about 3' of plywood/fiberglass dragging in the wind above the truck. a small whale-tail should take care of that for you, or even cheaper solution is getting a nose-cone for the trailer.

 

Actually, he may need to relearn how to scale that box for axle and bridge laws, also

 

So now you have a truck payment again?

Please for the love of God don't put a big wing ontop of a prostar and just get a nose cone instead.
