    How to setup to unload 50T of Transformer

    Well a new Transformer turned up today for Waurn ponds Zone sub, I missed the lift as it turned to poo and was time for me to head home



    One of the same in situ



    Melbourne is a hole, City to live, my ass it is



    Small things, small minds and et all



    What happens to the road when you sit the front of the low loader and 2 4" thick boards, had to use the crane to lift it, to get back on the truck, 25T



    160T crane



    Transformer

    Where did you get 50 ton from?
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Far less, it's only on a bogie-tri lowloader, you couldn't even get an overweight permit at that weight. I would need to be on a quad and dolly at the very least, I'm not familiar with current Victorian regs.

    The reason the trailer sank into the road, was when removing the dolly to shorten up for backing in the yard

    Sorry, 48T

    I had considered that scenario, but dismissed it as the float was a tri, not a quad. All the same, you wouldn't want it parked on your toe for too long would you?
