  • @metaltech5356 That depends on the make of trailer! 200-400 is typical. distance between holes is the main factor.

  • @monkeyboy5061 My brother and i are considering getting into the business of truck driving. People in our family have done it for years.And im really excited to get started. Im watching these videos to get ready for whatever the training school throws at me. Good job man.

  • very informative video, thanks

  • Steer axle weight changes when you move your 5th wheel slider ,foreward to increase or back to decrease (12,500 lbs max) and if you weigh with low or empty feul tanks remember to add 8 pounds per gallon to your drive axle weight when you feul up and at least 200lbs to your steer axle (varies with tractor model and wheelbase)

  • Dont they have some type of jet engine which when fired will remove 20,000 pounds or so? I saw that on a BJ & the Bear episode.

  • @Whitelinefilms Why are you dropping the load there?

  • ive been to that pilot with my dad we live in colorado springs
