    Yep it’s Kaiser.

    I got a call this morning to see if I had a trailer available. Product weighs 40,000 I’m told so yea not really excessively heavy.

    I’m pumping fuel when the call comes in, so I just drive up to look myself since the machine shop is only about 6 miles from my house.

    I
    Look it over and ask why it need’s transfer over to another trailer, driver said the front of his trailer will drag and the frame of the truck will hit the neck of the trailer.

    I’m not driving his truck so…. but I know my lowboy would go in there without a hitch, but I know my truck so…..

    They are hauling the machine back to Lexington Kentucky to transfer it to another trailer at the forklift operators shop. Then get permits and drag it and the forklift back to WV……

    Be cheaper to buy and install an override valve on the truck and trailer….

    Pictures are deceiving but it really doesn’t look like any “hump” getting in there

    It’s not bad at all, at most maybe a 3/8” thick shim in the front of my lowboy.

    I looked at his trailer, he has a good 3” under the front and more under the rear. A quick adjustment on the leveling valve of the drive axles at most and he would be fearless….
