TS7 Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 That truck is over loaded, even if a quad can gross 120k there. Good way to kill someone driving a truck over loaded like that.

Dunno about the other parts of the world, Australia was built by men who weren't affraid to push the limits way beyond what was acceptable Our troops fought and won plenty of unwinable battles around the world We have cattle stations bigger than Texas in some of the most inhospitable country in the world Thats how things change and improve in the world, by men pushing harder and further than ever before (mind out of the gutter) Paul Edited June 2, 2019 by mrsmackpaul 5 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57460-sterling-dump-hauling-a-small-mountain/#findComment-424265 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never killed anyone. People knew how to drive back then, LOL. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57460-sterling-dump-hauling-a-small-mountain/#findComment-424270 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TS7 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Paul a over loaded dump truck on city streets is not the same as a over loaded dump truck on a dirt road out back or on job site. I know all about over loading dump trucks when I am loading someone trucks that I do not own. Four weeks ago we were loading out wet clay on to 5 axle dump trailers ( 28 yd.). 2008 KW T-800 broke frame back of cab, lucky it happened at dump site, not on the road. At least once a week here in the Detroit area some good driver flips a dump train or a pup. I do not like to over load mine or anyone's trucks if I can help it. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/57460-sterling-dump-hauling-a-small-mountain/#findComment-424326 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 Think that is the first time in recent memory I've seen a truck run on the road with the front tires protruding the hood without rubber flares installed?

Rob Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 No needed. It was common in the late 1960's to early 1970's but thought requirements had changed in the passing years. Can't do that in Illinois but this state is communist controlled. 1 Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
