Here is a good pic of dad's 04.5 and my 02, mine sounds better, looks, better, and has a ton more power, but i like his because I don't have to shift all the time.

Heaviest load thats been on dads truck yet. We didnt tow it anywhere but were just checking to see how the springs would handle a heavy load with that trailer. he used the trailer to go pick up a 1-ton chevy pick-up with a dump bed in virginia yesterday. he said it didn't haul too bad.

 

not my truck but nice.

 

Truck looks too level for that much weight-Photoshop is a wonderful tool!!

 

I am in agreement with mopar. Now if the trailer was one that had tandems in middle point of bed I could see the dozer being positioned to give no weight on kinpin. With the type trailer pictured I would bet 20k or more of pin weight. Great picture though.

i think he has air ride cause he has everything else air on it.

 

nah, i think its 'shopped too. the color looks funny at the front under the 'neck where the landing gear would be

 

YA its photoshoped. I read on anouther diesel site where the owner posted the pics in a thread a lot like this. He said that there was no load on the truck just backed it under the trailer for the heck of it. He did photoshop the pic to get rid of the dollys. He said total combined weight of the cat and trailer was somwhere around 160k. The truck would be flat as a pancake.

The 5th wheel hookup could work, I had one in my 96 Dodge that was the same size as the OTR trucks.

On that dozer pic , some heavey equipment rigs have a short dolly trailer under the front of that trailer with alot of wheels for the wieght then that is hooked to the tractor.

 

That's true since they use a standard 2" SAE king pin. You can tow a fifth wheel camper with a class 8 tractor, in fact many RVers do just that.
