Northeast Indiana (Auburn) | You might want to look into using 12,000lb axles to get more braking power. I have a KB 450 center dump sitting on a 16' long gooseneck flatbed with two 12,000lb Dexter axles. I can get around 370 bu of soybeans and wheat and 400 bu of 60lb test weight corn on it. I take the center dump off in the spring to use the flatbed to haul seed and fertilizer. If you could make the rear dump bed removeable a person could put on a short flatbed for hauling liquid fertilizer and/or seed, I would also want more weight on the pickup. I run around 3,000lb on the truck. I weigh around 13,000lbs empty and up to 36,000lbs loaded. The pickup and trailer have a CGVWR of 33,200lbs plus a 10% farm to point of sale to get 36,520 maximum. |
