Sometimes I really hate the search function here.......
Anyway, I know I've seen threads such as "I have a 25 ton ex I'd like to tow with a S/A International...." kind of thing. Often it's an answer of "too much, for too small a truck".
What I'm curious about, is what sort of weight one could tow behind a single axle dump? I realize that it will vary a lot depending on the drive train of the truck for power, but most are still a 12K front axle and 20K rear. Locally there's a couple pulling 20 ton tags, but most I've ever seen on them was either a 310 JD hoe, or a 450 JD dozer, no 18 ton ex's or anything.
