Cooper Discoverer A/T 3

I bet the loader tractor put me 25-28k. Not my heaviest load but I've since went from 38" rears to 42" and added weights. So its about 2500# heavier. Its not my heaviest load but its decent.
 
The hay itself is 20k with 14 bales. Truck an trailer are either 14-16k iirc. My swather weighs 13k and its trailer weighs bout 8k, my other tractor weighs 22k and I've hauled it on either trailer
 
Not a 4 letter F word (like I drove while the LBZ was down).

The dodge is a loaded Laramie all stock 6.7l and aisin 6 speed auto, mainly pulled a 32ft hotshot trailer w/ 10k axles (couldn't legally gross more than what I already do) and pulled a horse trailer in the down time. Like most oil field guys he is out of a job and needs money to pay his operating note. Has been his personal truck since he bought it with 10k on it, currently has 180k
 
New tires today. Mastercraft AXT 285/75/16 on the PYOs. These are E range. Made in the same plant of the same compound as Cooper. They are a close tread duplicate of the AT3. Had new idler and pitman arms installed too. The idler had 150k and the pitman was original. Huge difference in steering tightness.

I suppose I could have put the white letters out but. Nah!

They look good. Let us know how they ride/handle.

These handle well especially at high speeds. They have an odd sound at 40-45 mph but it goes away above that. I'm currently running 60 psi until I get a chance to read the tread. I had about 1600 lbs in the bed yesterday for around 30 miles. Up around 60 mph or so it felt a bit soft in the rear so I might want to go higher when I need to hook up the trailer
