5400lbs in the bed - 56k warning

When I asked the guy at the quarry to fill it up, he took it literally.

5400lbs of screenings:













She is 5'6. I'm 6'2 and I can barely see over the top of the rail when its empty. This thing has 9" of lift on 40s... lol



It was for this:










I'm not in any of the pics because I was taking them

Hey Jack... taking the pictures is the best thing when there is a lot of heavy lifting going on is it not??????

My one fiddy looked like that a couple of times a few months ago with a yard of stone dust in it. I used mine for the foundation pads for a shed that I am buidling... or at least trying to build that the weather is not helping with.

The patio looks good!!!!!!!!!!

Might be a good time to invest in overload springs.

Well somebody does need to supervise the project and I agree with all of the heavy lifting that you did. I did my own share last night
