    30 on the drives, 33 on the trailer. Axles were spread. Would have been much worse if closed of course. I’m near 32k empty.

    Guy in Bedford said they load them both ways, when I measured it, it looked too close for me so I opted for that way. 13` 8”. Only issue really was that 13 6 bridge in bedford. I took the town route

    I still can’t find that bridge in the atlas unless I’m missing it :eek: Been there enough to know

    These are the best loads! Under 30k on the deck and about 3ft tall. It took 15 min to load. Super nice guys.....Yoder are awesome folks. Called ahead to the receiver. They had somebody stay late to unload me. Took the guy all of 5 min to unload me and i was down the road!

    Articulating equipment should have some form of locking device.
    It may be a pin or clamp, just depends on manufacturers.
    In most cases on used equipment, the pins are long gone.
    Man lifts that have rotator function have locks on them.
    No one really uses them, mostly because people just don’t know about them.

    Thanks brother. I should have taken a middle pic. That one would have shown all the padding. I realized this after I posted....owell. :confused:
