One of our road trains, they are 70m long. Its a Kenworth C540, they run a QSK19 up front with a allison auto and double hub reduction diffs. The 3rd trailer down is a powered trailer, it runs a signature with an allison and tri drive sisu hub reduction diffs.

Below I'm doing a engine/tranny change out on the trailer.




The bin has to be thrown over to get the motor out.



We run a few of these, although ours are not this new and clean They are technically underground trucks, they run a DD Series 60 with allison auto's and sisu axle's in both the truck and powertrailer.

This is one of our smaller rigs, its a 904 Kenworth with a signature and 18speed roadranger and tri drive. It pulls 4 trailers and two are powered by signatures,allison auto and meritor/volvo diffs. It comes out of quite a pit/incline so needs the power

I'm not 100% sure but I think about 7000 to 10 000. I could be wrong though, I will find out for sure.
