Popular Post Brocky Posted March 21, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted March 21, 2016 This showed up at the Mid Eastern Chrome Stop "Cruise In" in Gaston SC last Saturday.. Twin Steer 2 drives, then a tag axle, then a powered steerable final axle. The operator said the boom goes up 200 feet. 3 Quote Brocky Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/44411-concrete-pumper/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavyGunner Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Any guess at what that boom weighs full of concrete? I'm thinking it's more than a you think but I have no idea.

Plus all that tube, hydraulics etc I just hope it has some pretty wide outriggers!

j_martell Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 There's a big concrete pumping outfit near home that runs a few with the layout of the cab/chassis pics above. Bet they turn like a house with all those tires on the ground Quote Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part....
