rsb502 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Too heavy for a 724k huh? I guess you didn't try to drag it then, were they over their 20k weight estimate?

Green Dash Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 A 20' container has a payload limit of around 44k lbs. I'm guessing this one is maxed out.

rsb502 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 They put a lot more than 44 in those 20 footers. I pulled cans for a year and the heaviest were 20' loaded with marble, granite and copper pipe. I was always over 80k with those loads, only 40' over gross I pulled was hardwood for export (around 85-90k) and a magnet wire machine brought in from Japan. I was running 98,000 with that one, nobody else would pull it but the ol E9, with 44 camelback rears and 4.42's didn't even notice.

It weighs about 46,000 lbs. They had to double stack some pallets,crammed it in there,and then had to push the doors in with the forklift to get them closed.

slpwlker Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 It had the cones on the end of the axles. It had some big rears Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33280-had-this-big-beast-load-me-today/#findComment-214322 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Yeah that Mack is heavy alright, I bet it rides like crap with solid rear suspension, those could be 44k rears with 8 bolt cone axles, I don't remember what the 58k rears look like on the ends, I bet the NY guys do though.

RFCDrum Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 They look like 58's on walking beam with those size cones but might be 65's. Hard to tell with Budd rims.

rsb502 Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 When did they go to the 8 and 10 bolt axles is it 65k or over that, or did they do away with them and go back to 8 bolt? I posted above they could be 44's without thinking 44's are 6 bolts not 8, I think the 58's are 8 bolt now but I know ive seen some 10 bolts somewhere.

2stacksuperdog Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 these are 65's i believe. Quote Matt Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33280-had-this-big-beast-load-me-today/#findComment-214569 Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFCDrum Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 The extra rib on the center of each spoke indicates 65's I believe as the 58's don't have that. But still how do you tell with Budd rims?

But still how do you tell with Budd rims?The heavy cone cap with Budd wheels on Mack hard bar indicate 65K rears. If it had camel back springs then 58K or 65K. If the caps are flat with 6 bolts then they would be less 55K & below.

rsb502 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I didn't notice until today that it had a 425 for a tag axle tire, the drives look taller than the 425, they have to be 12.00R 24's, Michelin shows them at 49" tall, the 425 XZY Michelin shows to be 44", I bet those Michelin 12.00R24's aren't cheap but you gotta pay if you wanna play I guess.
