The big rock weighs about 6,000lbs. On the front of the trailer there was another 2400lbs of rock. Trailer weighs about 2500lbs on its own. Plus, the truck weighs 7800lbs. Roughly 18,700lbs of weight... On 6,000lb license plates Truck handled it like a champ. Easily had a few inches (5" or so) between the axle and the bump stops.

 

damn thats alot of tounge weight

 

too bad i dont have any big rocks to move

 

The 6,000lbs behind it leveled the load out a bit. Truck only sagged about 4", maybe 5".

 

Awesome!

 

and like Charlie Brown said at Halloween:

"I got a rock"

 

Sweet
But what the heck do you need with a rock that big?

 

I have the same question. What are you doing with all the rock? I bet that cost some $$.

It's for the bossman. The big rock is gonna be the sign outside of his new neighborhood. The smaller rocks are going to be part of a waterfall.

 

Your truck Rocks, lol.

 

That is not at all what I expected to see when you said a load of rock.

I was thinking more of the gravel type.

You should have titled this thread "My truck can only haul 8 rocks at a time"

Nice work....

 

Well, that would make sense. There for a second I thought you were doing so personal landscaping. My parents put a rock not quite that big in as a spot to set a bench. That would be cool to make a couple rocks like that into a flush with the ground deck.

 

I love rocks !!!

Used as a sign ??? Nooo ! Perfectly good rocks to set up a rock garden ! Then get yourself a buggy and PLAY !!!

Thanks for the pics, makes me glad I don't have a SD....

 

nice haul zair

 

Dang... Zach, you dethroned me!!!
