Bullheaded Posted July 5, 2019 Author Share Posted July 5, 2019 Yes, wood chips. That style is called a possum belly. And the ones I pulled into Michigan needed 7 or 8 axles to legal the same weight, so they just have a well down the center of the trailer.

JoeH Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 How many yards is that? In PA they haul about 65 yards of mulch on a tandem axle walking floor trailer.

Mack Technician Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 The crane on that CV713 looks like it would have no problem flipping him over. Must be light material?

Bullheaded Posted July 6, 2019 Author Share Posted July 6, 2019 JoeH, I've been out of forestry for a few years now, so I can't remember about the chip trailers for volume, but my Titan 5 axle walking floor was 135 cubic yards. I once scaled in at the local flakeboard mill at 189597.55 pounds gross of hog fuel. Luckily I never got caught with that one, LOL. That load was with the 2000 Mack CH E7 460. Those are just culverts they are unloading Mack Tech. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/58000-working-macks-today/#findComment-427068 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullheaded Posted July 7, 2019 Author Share Posted July 7, 2019 Fitting. And a good play on word's, LOL. I like that era of Cat loader too. I ran both a 988 like that and a 992. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/58000-working-macks-today/#findComment-427173 Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 4-axle setup is popular in Ontario and Quebec. It's (usually) a 72" spread with the front axle steerable and liftable. It has to be 98-118" away from the triaxle. I like the old DM's you found! Most old Macks are from the 90's and have that set back grille.
