    Oh you probably could but I would rather have firm tires than ones that would roll side to side. Besides it would take a tanker to fill them again... lol

    We also have all the needed yearly permits so there is no issue.

    Now the delivery location, that was another thing.... 15 miles down a dirt road dragging the trailer on the dips and no more than 15 mph because of the hills. First time I have hauled something this big so it was a good experience. Looking forward to the next large piece of equipment. Talk about a wind drag.... LOL

    That does not sound like a good time on a gravel road. Seems like a good load though.

    Battle born,if you want to lower a machine on tires,you put wooden blocks under it.
    1° for stability,like cnsper allready hinted at.
    2° not to damage the tire(depends on how much you lower it by)

    So on that "tonka" you would need a lot off wood and a lot off time.
    Sometimes it is worth the effort,sometimes not.
     
    Battle Born Thanks this.

    Got behind this guy south of council bluffs but couldn't get a pic so I passed him and got off at a rest area to snap a good picture.
