Still have the crane truck and been taking in loads now and then, this is funny as last year I started out with a home built tandem car trailer which I still have but find it has its short comings when I need to haul my Little Dipper loader. The loader weighs 8800 lbs, you all may recall the landfill site on the Res.

Jack is history to may games. I've been going to a new yard, checked their scale against the highways scale and they give honest weights, no more weighing myself in though have to keep bankers hours. Anyhow while I was at the yard today spotted a really nice set of Torkflex axles yup all three of them with good 10 ply tires, electric brakes on all.

These are 7,000 lb axles that I bought for $250.00, soooo it looks like we're going to build another trailer with a GVW of 21,000 lbs. This is a much bigger payload than what the crane truck can legally haul. once this baby's finished I'll have no problems moving the loader onto a job site.



I've pretty much hauled in every scrap car and truck within a 75 mile radius from home and the pickens are getting slim so its time to regroup - go trailer.

Figure on going for a goose neck trailer this round, I'm going to snarf the hydraulic winch from the crane truck before it's sold with plans to mount the winch onto the new trailer with a hydraulic power pack run off a small gasoline engine.

Oh, ya not to forget i have an account that produces 10 to 15 tons of plasma table waste every three months, after me and the crane truck part company I'm going to park the small car trailer at this accounts place of business for them to fill.

I'll miss the crane truck but not the fuel bills.
