    Ummm. I could be wrong, but, chaining up wouldn't help right??


    IF the axles are submerged, I think waiting til summer would be appropriate. (joking of course)

    Have you ever moved larger wind mill prop?

    When you say bored, are you saying this because for what equipment you have, there isn't much work for or are you actually liking the challenge of moving the unmovable??

    Yeah, chaining up in that situation is a waste of time...a D10T Dozer would be of more use. This is a prime example of learning when to say "No" before you get into the situation...

    No, I've never moved wind energy stuff...our contracts are more lucrative.

    I'm bored cause I've owned it for several years now...it's no longer challenging, hence boredom. We have enough work most of the time, too much at others, and occasionally we get slow...no different than anything else.

    Note, this is just for heavy haul. If you stay under 80k all states allow singles.

    If your under 80k is that really a heavy haul? Or are you meaning oversize?

    I only mentioned it so people searching for Super singles on the forum wouldn't assume that applied to all trucks. Super singles are fine with oversize, but yea, some states restrict against using them for axles that have more then 20,000 pounds.
