Where is everyone #5

Guess it's going to be a custom made hat.

 

That would be a record for my Wife leaving Walmart with just one! Of course it’s hard to see the whole cart?

 

Our market hogs weigh between 250 and 290 on average. We shoot for 270. At avg we load 170hd on two floors on flat floor trailers. Today I had 170 hd at avg 293lbs and was 84500. That's with a heavy day cab. I'm about 34000 Mt. You can fit more on a pot trailer but not legal. Feeder pigs we avg 525 on a load and shoot for 60-65 pounds. Wean pig's at avg of 14 lbs I have hauled 1400. We ship loads of 1250hd on a regular basis on a four level trailer. Never hauled a four deck and never will. When I haul cull sows we put 105 on and have a little room left but we don't weigh those. Perty sure every one of those is over weight. Hope that helps.

 

I use to get docked if they weighed 250...235 was the magic number....oh how times have changed.

 

I had purebred hamp sows and a York boar so long he looked like a snake going through the lot. Nobody raises hogs like that anymore.

 

What's a hamp sow ? Is that a Breed ? Or a stage as they age ?

 

Hampshire I assume. Breed, bout as big as my ex girlfriend

 

You would need to swap trans too due to power increase, Make sure radiator and charge air cooler are the proper size. Just for a few things. Yes it can be done. Helpful if you do the work. Paying to have it done is normally not cost effective.

 

Yep...short,fat, and squatty. Can be meaner than a hungry Gator. Chunk of three foot pipe will usually get them to release your leg.....

 

I would go B model or mechanical C just cause no wiring changes. That said an E with a harness from Mawk industries isn't that high or difficult to install.

I dont know of a single jam up B model man in your area so an E would be a better choice on my opinion.


Truck better be cheap. Motor mounts to move, radiator air to air and as posted eventually trans and possible drive line upgrade. If you was to wring one out. Also keep in mind all the little ####
