How much is this worth?

[Peddler]

why do people stretch the wheelbase of the truck so dramatically like that?

In some instances it's to bridge a load and keep axle weights where they belong.

ya thats what i was thinking. and make it so they can pull it easier on a heavy load sine the wieght is distributed better ??

As far as heavy loads go you would have to add axles to gain more capacity. The spread axle on the trailer is an exception....You can go up to 20 ton on a trailer with a spread where as one without you can only legally axle 17 ton

WOW,

We "hi-jacked" Moles thread


Try running a "Sand Box" in Florida....you will learn real quick what "Bridge Formula" is...73280 on 4 axles.....single axle tractor with a "Florida Spec" dump.. :roll: :roll: 22' or 24' box on a 28' or 30' frame.....haul 25 tons legal all day long.....One of the few states that maxs at 80000 regardless of # of axles on the ground :twisted: .. I'm legal for 65000 on 10 wheels (3 axles) 8) with only a 15' body....up here in New England

Hamer or Mr.Peddler,if you need to move this to the "Truck Zone" do it at your own risk.........only" CDL ,Export Radio hoarding Big Riggers" allowed to move such .............. "precious cargo" 8)
