MN spring road restrictions

Yea, but when you call brokers on lds. they are like go for it. It's only so many miles to the border...
They are still posting big lds. to move now...

 

Yea, I got the rear axle on the trl. chained up.. The trl. is to long for Mn. with the axle down. Learned that the hard way the other year at Moorehead scale.

 

17,000 per axle off of the intersate, plus what you said above.

Last year we snuck around quite a bit on this, I heard the DOT caught on to it. This year as far as I know we played it by the rules, I think someone got caught last year and the fine the company had to pay must have been pretty good.

 

Yea you just hate having to drop the trl. after a long trip, where instead you could just take the whole thing home and call it a day. lol

 

Thats what hat I have to do every day -_- drive maybe 300 miles then come home drop trailer, bobtail 1.2 miles. Drop truck. Drive pickup 2 miles back past trailer to my place. Fail. Hate doing it with a loaded trailer too. Not looking forward to the possible event that I arrive some morning and 1 part of the load has gone missing or 2 the trailer and load has walked off. I'd say 3 the landing gear has punched thru the parking lot, but I've done that 3 or 4 times.

now if You had a michigan special would you still be able to get to 80k with it? I see pics of the multi axle setups and wonder what they normally gross....anyone know?

 

The Mi. trains gross right at 150 plus on 8 I believe. Frost laws hurt them as well during that time
