Thanks for a great thread,I thoroughly enjoyed the great pics and commentary.Your tie down of that machine cross chained is pure poetry and the mark of a real pro,picture perfect.I used to double up when I could get away with it,one combination was a 550 John Deere dozer and 410 JD backhoe which left me a little over width on a 35 ton Rogers low bed but was able to get away with it several times.Here's a few more pics of stuff I have hauled lately. Also a pic of a broken u bolt and block on my truck. Rear diff also went out the same week the u bolt and block broke. I guess after 1,570,000 miles and hauling heavy for a good amount of that something is bound to wear out eventually.
