I have 2 cubic yards of moist organic compost under the tarp. It squatted the truck pretty good. I felt it hit the bump stops going down the road.

On my wish list are timbrens and roadmaster active suspension springs. I dislike a sagging truck. At least the ride was soft.


Some firewood loads ive hauled all stacked front to back a bit higher then the cab and my bump stops resting on the axle lol.

Those timbrens are awesome! my buddy has them on his 2011 5500 ram cummins six speed dump truck. IT handles 8 ton of gravel no problem.
 
21000 for the trailer and load, about 8000 for the truck loaded. Towed 1000 miles 11 MPG for the whole trip combined driving. The only good picture is lost, three tractors on the trailer 30 foot goose neck trailer.

I wish I snapped a pic, but on I84 in Idaho there was a guy that bought a potato lifter (20K lbs roughly) and had it up on his trailmax (really well built trailers, looked to have tandem duallys with 17.5s, so 15K rated axles x2) tiltbed trailer, and was pulling with his 2500HD duramax SRW!! :O I bet total combo was up there a ways!!!
 
Been giving my truck a workout hauling hay the other day.24' trailer, 11 -12 to1300 lb bales to the load,..10 loads in all.
Easy did it.

1-Trl - Wall Block pallets-003.jpg

Around 18,500 lbs = truck, trailer, & load (retaining wall blocks). Trailer weighs ~ 5400 - well built trailer, but PJ's newer designs are more efficient/lighter.

And yes, they were strapped down front to back better than this pic when on the road.
 
Small equipment shed?


The inside is 8ft wide and 14ft long. I had a trailer that would just squeeze in there so I put 2 I beams across and jacked it up then blocked it up rolled the trailer in and slid the I beams back under and sat the building on the trailer. I didn't pull it to its new home yet. I only have to go a few hundred feet down the road. I think I may wait until 2 am when there is no traffic.
