Tight fit to keep it on the trailer.
It weighs about #175,000 as you see it here.

Had to assist the truck up the 15% grade with a Cat 834B wheel dozer.

That’s crazy! Would those chains attached to the track even do much holding it in place [emoji23] they look so small in comparison

They look tiny, but they are 1/2" grade 100. No wimpy chains allowed on lowbeds.

We used one to pull the rig up the hill. My wheel dozer is about 110,000#, with 450 horsepower and about 2000# of torque. Full throttle pull, never worried about the chain.

You have to know the difference between just a big chain and a really good big chain.
