Jamied625 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Thats the thing tho. I dont "Show off" my truck. I sold my pickup truck to get the international and get my business going. The only vehicles i have to get to school, work, go out on dates, movies, is either the international or my 96 f350 mason dump...

paul roncetti Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Hi Tom, I am glad you and Jamie have gone to school to have a back up career. My only regret was not going to business school rather than engineering, would have helped prevent some mistakes even thoiugh it can't make you a businessman, (either you are or you're not). Long story short, ended up with 28 trucks and broke by age 26. Just stay in touch however because I do move machinery around and don't know if you would be set up for that, packaging equipment as in photo. Just moved 4 of these lines from PA to IN........Paul Quote RONCETTI Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27621-towing-john-deere-310j-video/page/2/#findComment-140400 Share on other sites More sharing options...

other dog Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 You do not want a Tarasport. They are flimsy as all hell.also is it a 53' with extentions? or extended to 53? If it is a 53' before extentions it will be illegal. Also a 53 is not allowed everywhere even with spread axle. Also get to learn how to back up again with a spread. I'd look 4 a 48' even beaver tailed you run into length problemsYou're right about that. And a dump valve to dump the air on that back axle is really handy with a spread too when you get in a tight spot. If you don't already have a spare switch in the truck to wire a dump valve and you have to put one in, i'd put an indicator light on it so you won't forget it's dumped and take off down the road with it. That's hard on tires, especially if you have to slam on the brakes. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

The truck has a switch already for a dump valve!!
