Not to mention how hard it would be on the axle to put the full power and torque of a large engine into it. At least with tandems or tridrives you're splitting all that torque across multiple axles.

I dont know what kind of loads or HP they have in other countries but they are running alot of single drives and tag or pushers.

This guy passed me weaving through the traffic like a sedan in Tacoma. Looks to me like that 40 ton Cat is a weee bit off center. She has a bit of a list. I wonder if that was the first or the 5th attempt to get it centered on the trailer? I am going with 1 and done. "that's not going anywhere" LOL.

In a hurry have schedule to keep and emergency dirt to move.

that covers driving like a jackwagon too.

LH front suspension a bit down on nitrogen would be my first guess.

I got a good look and it was hanging a bit more tire on the right.

That would be handy to help me tip up a 30 foot flag pole in my front yard

Does this qualify as an Overload of the Day?

Good to see they have a pusher horse on the back. d.d.

 

[Birken Vogt]

I thought it might be the front of a pusher team but that horse has no collar or any rigging, just a saddle it appears. Never seen or heard of a horse pusher team in real life.

Good eye DD, I thought it was just a spare........

I reckon that fella on the Roit has had a bit of an overload on his backside. The rest of them dandies have baby smooth hands.

Driver has accelerator pedal in his left hand.

Based on that Saddle, may be that ?Peace? or other officer with the square cap on.

Out in the dirt and I bet no hoisting certificates either.

That's the early Link Belt Ricky Bobby John model.

No it is just a photo of a Coleman re-cabbed with a Ford cab with a Coleman steer drive axles I found on the web. Sorry.
