The Truckers’ Report flatbed Hall of Shame.

There ya go, no load insurance, over weight, over size, over height, over length permit, no weigh stations, just free and... not too easy. Wonder how many trucks it would take to move all that today.

 

Not a flat but still my shame! 10 ton trailer, 19K excavator and my 3500 HD. 15 miles from the rental place. Our 4700 W/S was having clutch issues and there was work to be done!
I did use 6 chains for securement atleast!

 

Only shame is not tucking that stick down.

 

Tried, piston was hitting on the front with and without blocking.

 

You talking about the blade? It will rotate ya know. Blade to the rear

 

Nope, stick piston, and turning around and putting the blade to the rear placed to much weight on the drives.

 

Ok.

 

19k machine on a 20k trailer? Maybe a little overloaded (Minus the weight of the trailer probably around 5-6k for that size) so yeah, around 5k overloaded. I think those chevs 3500s got about 20k capacity bumper pull load, (I could be very wrong) so yeah around 5k overloaded there too. If the ground between there and the rental place is flat, you're fine (as long as there are no weigh stations as well ) I hope that rental place gave you a good rent deal on that cheap Chinese knockoff trackhoe!
