Freightrain Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Just watched something on PBS last night. Kind a knock off of Discovery channel. They showed how they take raw materials and make something> last night was a similar dump to what you hauled. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

slpwlker Posted October 18, 2013 Author Share Posted October 18, 2013 Make my 89k look a little week now.It's all good. 89k on 5 axles is a good bit of weight anyway.

mack mhe9 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 That's what I say. You can pull the weight but can you stop it. You got to be on your game or it will cost you.

rsb502 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 150k?, what are you scared to haul real load or something? I bet Ray can come give you hand if you need some help getting that up a hill! lol. Oh Ray I dropped those injectors off to get cleaned and ready to go in Im gonna try to get started on the exhaust soon, I actually have some spare time again after tomorrow, gotta get that turbo in here then I can slap it all together with some zip ties and chewing gum and hope for the best. I only made 24lbs of boost the other day hauling two old R models on a lowboy trailer up hill at about 75mph, I think the 84 pulled better than the 85, it had the 540hp euro turbo and 20% on the pump. 1 Quote "Any Society that would give up a little LIBERTY to gain a little SECURITY will Deserve Neither and LOSE BOTH" -Benjamin Franklin"If your gonna be STUPID, you gotta be TOUGH" "You cant always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you get what you need" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33166-haul-trucks/#findComment-212282 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mack mhe9 Posted October 19, 2013 Share Posted October 19, 2013 I'd love to move some of that heavy stuff. The size and weights don't worrie me it the legal stuff like escorts, permits, restrictions, that's why I try to stay under any thing 10ft wide and I have to know where I'm going and if I can get there unseen. I just put signs on and go or take them off when I have to.

I thought they were on up in the weight closer to 250k empty. I would guess no bed just a chassis and no tires to get you to 160k.

rsb502 Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Yeah those things are monsters, only thing CAT makes bigger is the 797 and I doubt a whole chassis could go by truck theyre so damn heavy. Im glad you don't mind paying with the big stuff, somebody has to do it, I think the rules and other b.s. keep most folks out of the real heavy stuff.

slpwlker Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 They ship the 97 on 13 axles. look the same as the 93. Sometimes if memory serves right they pull the radiator off and bumper Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33166-haul-trucks/#findComment-212699 Share on other sites More sharing options...
