Subject: RE: Sizing a Manure Tanker



Chilliwack BC
I would go up to 3000 gallons if it had steering and brakes, 2500 max if it didn't, especially if its tandem. Too large of a non steerable tandem would throw the tractor around. A 966 with duals here handles a 2500 single axle tank. I would not put a 3000 on it.

Remember that we're giving you two sizes of gallons here and you have to look at the mapdot to tell what the person is referring to. 3000 Imperial gallons = 3600 US gallons. Jasons tank is Canadian, therefore probably Imperial gallons. Jamesway tanks have Canadian and American flags on them with the gallon sizes to make this easier.
