Perfect

are those things running twin lazy axles, should be able to carry 20 tonne, wouldn't like to steer it when they're down. Those little butter spreader graders are like a surgeons knife

Come on up to Michigan, gravel trains .a 32 ft trailer and a 24ft. Pup weighing up to 161,000 pads. No permits need for those weight. Tons of fun to back up even more fun when you had joe-dog hooked to 32 and have to back it under the pup.develop backing skills quickly

The t880, has proven itself as an absolute solid workhorse platform from KW. We run a fleet of 5, and the only gripe is when I finally get my seat set nice and low, there isn't any air-ride left in it. What the hell? Sure do wish they would have kept the t-800 seat and arm-rest configuration in these cabs.

Good at what they do!!!
-
great job guys. that's why they are called professionals drivers
-
Come on... with that equipment it'd be almost impossible not to do it right.
-
lol, "1,200 tons".

Made that look easy enough.

That crush n run can be pricey. We're building our farm road with millings (free).
We have a pad set for them to dump at their leisure, and our guy will grade and track it in.
Road will be about 18' wide and a mile or so long to the barn. -
glad there was no power lines overhead or that wouldn't have worked

Is not about the driver, is about the PTO
You need to have a good PTO.....some PTOs work very well and some don't. If your PTO is very slow theres no way you can do this job well done. There is 3 cycles on a super 10 end dump truck, if one cycle is not working well, your not going to do well on spreading your load. -
Just started driving dump trucks myself. I can't wait til I can tailgate as clean and smooth as these guys

When every truck can spread like this, i would loose my Job graderoperator and need my grader anymore. The Problem is that not enough material for grading, so i like to have more gravel for my blade. For reparing roads it might be ok, but when i have to built in higher, i need lots of gravel for my grader, i push sometimes 2000 tons gravel a day. We in Germany use graders like dozers, because we all have front blades.

What gear are you in 2nd? Nice Spread. I've sorta got the basics of spreading . . Get box just above cab . Have box in hold position at that angle . Do you simultaneously pop the gate and the pull back on the box when you start rolling with the cluch fully engaged ?I'm just starting out. Thx

how many tons these trucks haul? out here in California we have super 10s and max load is 18 tons, strong arms 22 tons

That's why they have chains on tailgates.
