66dc75 Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 That thing is sprocketed for highway travel I believe over 60mph. That's some singin' chains at that speed.

tjc transport Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 ^^^ i always wondered what happened to that sterling. it was a real beast. top speed was only around 40 mph. it was owned by Haines Towing in Bordentown NJ. and was their heavy tow/recovery rig. it lifted me out of a ditch when i hit something in the road and blew out all 5 passenger tires. loaded at 65,000 lbs on a tandem box truck back in 78. picked the whole truck straight up and set it down on a flatbed trailer to get it off the roadway. 1 Quote when you are up to your armpits in alligators, it is hard to remember you only came in to drain the swamp..
