Didnt want to start a new thread, figured I'd bump an old one.
51.5 step here, so I should be fine overhanging 1-1.5 ft on the top deck on the front right? -
Just be careful to add at least that much of stick out when you do your maneuvering.Lepton1 Thanks this. -

Each state is different. Just gktta check the laws where ur goingg.. Down south it seems they dont like overhand.. Out west its alot of rebar coming out of cmc in arizona going to cali utah and colorado, ive seen guys with 45ft trailers pullin 60 ft rebar... I usually put it on my 53 ft and have em load it 4ft on front and 3 ft on back..never needed a permit
x1Heavy Thanks this. -
Not ever where, n I can swear to it. Over here trailer and or load can be up to 48’ including overhang. Over 48’ total trailer and load length must be permitted or if divisible its ticketable. Ie 45’ trailer with 3’ overhang is fine/ 48’ trailer with 6” overhang not fine unless non divisible and permitted.
But somehow a trailer over 48 but 53 or less long is legal (with no overhang) as long as the Kpra spacing is correct.... so long as you don’t go more than a mile from staa routes, same as doubles. additionally, once your trailer is over 48’ in length, there’s a oal limit as well.
Man, #### this state.x1Heavy, spyder7723, cke and 1 other person Thank this. -
