Post your cool or unique load

I'd like to see what type of stuff you guy's are hauling. I want to see what's paying the bill's. Nothing againt camper's, but we all ready have a thread for that. Unless of course,,,,you getting paid to haul it then post it.

I'll start. Here's the 3 most unique car's that I hauled at the same time. I'll bet no one can guess what all 3 are.



Here's a couple of more pic's. Click on "view full size" once you click on the pic.

that load was about 13k not counting the trailer weight total gross for trailer and load was about 21k. the thing about that load was that it was 9 ft tall on the trailer deck so i was around 12 ft total and the winds made it a pain. the typical loads i run are about 12k to 20k plus trailer. My trucks really do love me

Thanks, BRJ - I designed & built it at my shop to haul equipment, vehicles, supplies, etc. It's all rectangular pipe, aluminum treadplate & stainless steel with a powered drop ramp, 2" rollers and a 12K# hydraulic winch... the arch is 6'6" clearance with an extra 12" reach to the coupler for us big guys
