Default My job, pictures

Well, since I finally found this section. Thought I'd post what I've been doing lately.


As of date this is the smallest load I've hauled a WA-50 swinger, new rental.


Hauled this guy around job hopping. 124,000lbs



What I'm currently hauling. 128,000-131,000lbs In Casper, WY



Truck and trailer I started the year with. Weight 105,000 lbs

I've never had a 4 axle tractor to run. Nice loads, though. I like the idea of "NO TARP". But, even empty, you're oversize, aren't you?

Then heavy haul trailers, either those axles fold up or they use axle pieces that they put on deck when empty so they aren't oversized while empty.

As I sit looking all around,
Confusion and uncertainty is all I found.
The answers are there,
But I do not know where.
Optimistic and hopeful dreams,
Are all I have so it seems.
The future I do not know,
So all I can do is take it slow.
But I do know it will work out,
So I wait and watch without a doubt

This particuliar trailer, is 9ft wide, and only 53ft long. Legal in ND if used for moving construction equipment. SD I have a annual empty trailer oversize permit, only requires flags on all four corners. WY requires flags and signs even when empty.

The flip axle, or used to be, is now welded solid, if it wasn't welded solid, I'd never get any weight on the last axle, I've probably been lucky, as I can't get quite enough weight on it, i'm about 4-5000 lbs shy.

Sure as heck, is a pain in the neck, when I have to load and unload more than once perday. Just wishing for a nice non-ground bearing Hyd detach.
