How many deuces on a trailer?

[sail-bum]

I purchased 2 m35a2 W/W from Gl, awaiting EUC currently. It is only a 60 mile trip but I think transport is my best bet. Has anyone ever tried loading 2 of these on a trailer before? I am just trying to save a little money, I was not intending to buy 2 at once.

You can fit 150 trucks on an ocean going ship.

You can fit about 10 on a fairy.

You can get 3 on a train car.

How long is your trailer?

A W/W Deuce weighs about 14,000 lbs x 2 = 28,000 lbs. How much is the trailer rated for?

 

[sail-bum]

Sorry about that. I meant a transporters trailer, and I don't have a specific transporter yet so I do not have a measurement.

10 on a fairy? I guess that is a Central NY thing? Wayne

 

[doghead]

Actually, there are no fairys around where I live. I have read about them being popular in the San Diego area and in Oregon.

How do you know? Do they have to sign in? Wayne

 

[doghead]

You look for the signs. If you don't know what the signs look like,try searching Google.

There are fairys everywhere. Ferrys, however are a different matter.

So Sail-Bum, gonna sell one of those trucks or keep em?

 

[doghead]

oops, once again, correct grammer does matter.

 

[sail-bum]

Yes Paulbusmax, I do plan on getting rid of one of them. This is scary, I just received notice from Gl that my EUC has cleared on these trucks. The auction ended on Dec 2nd and I paid for them on the 3rd, 11 days for an EUC? I am in panic mode, I already had 2 M105's waiting for me at Ft Benning that cleared EUC last week, now 2 M35A2's at Forest Park? There is a bottle of scotch calling me from somewhere!

fairys are popular in san francisco..........unless it's your godmother

 

[PaulbusMax]

Sounds like Sail-Bum is going to be busy!

You can get two deuces on a 53 foot step deck trailer......I shipped two back from Arkansas on one.

They might squeeze two on a 48 footer if neither had a winch but it would be tight.

Weight is not an issue with two deuces on a commercial vehicle...it will not be close to the 80K max.

Fairies signs from google!

You can get two w/w on a 48'. I've done it. It is full without a inch to spare though.

 

[sirmrtow]

you can sell one to me

Staten Island Ferry

Guess Google went phonetic....
