The Truckers’ Report flatbed Hall of Shame.

On first glance, I'd was going to say no. But there's blocking between units, and depending on weight, I'm going to stick my neck out and say it's probably legit, but not how I would do it?

 

Yes , I've done that way many times. Have hauled as many 11 per load.
Never chained more than 3 in a group. They ride good like that.

 

Yes.
When you you are running 99 though California everything can seem to be to be worse than it is.

 

Pshhhh, just tell the cop it's loaded on a 96 and stick it into the wind.....lol

 

I wouldn't do it. All directions of movement have to be limited. It would prolly depend on the guy at the scale and what kind of day he was having. I wouldn't haul it though.

 

I’ve hauled em like that before. Not much else you can do.

 

Ive only hauled scissor lifts a couple times before . the way i done it was similar but after each lift, the chain goes down to the rail then back up to the next lift . not sure if it made any difference or made it any more secure then that picture. At the end of the day it was still 1 chain and if it failed all lifts were unsecured on that side.

Blue line being the chain.



What other way is there to secure those?

 

No logical way, unless you happen to carry a ton of binders. I wish I could just be like a white Volvo-ite and just do away with carrying chains altogether.

 

May be able to see how it’s done. 13 lifts, 10 chains, 12 binders? I do like to go back to the rail between lifts.

 

Ahhh, see....there's the rub. My power of NO works very well. Lots of loads out there and that one ain't going on my trailer. I'd just treat it like a @Kyle G. load.....take one look......then walk away slowly.
