It's been 16 years since I last touched a 994. I was in a little town called Round Mountain, Nevada. My dad and I had to tear it down and ship it back to Dallas, TX. Where we would go through it and convert it to joystick steering. Since we were shipping it to Texas we didn't have to tear it down all the way. We removed, bucket, loader frame, cab, catwalks, counterweight, and wheels. The company that was hauling it said that they could haul the rest on a beam trailer. After we removed everything we drove it over the beam trailer to remove the tires. Once we got it blocked up and the wheels removed the haul truck driver started to leave the yard. This machine was swaying big time on that beam trailer. We stopped the driver and told him that we needed to remove the final drives because of how much this thing was swaying. That driver told us that it wasn't necessary and he wasn't scared of the load. After failing to convince him otherwise. We told him that once you leave that gate the load is yours and don't call us if you change your mind. It wasn't an hour before he called and asked to come back to remove the final drives. My dad stood his ground and told him that the load now belonged to him and we aren't going to remove the final drives. It took 2 weeks for that load to go 250 miles to their yard in Las Vegas. That load blew out every tire on that beam trailer. I was told that they had to have a tire man chasing him all the way back to Vegas.
