Awesome video! Thanks for posting.

Your kind comment made me smile! I thank you for watching the video. I enjoy sharing the videos I capture of trucks transporting freight and machinery. Wishing you a great day!

Hello @ SmokeStack, how are you doing?

[@wcox4]

I really like the flip neck on the jeep and main trailer. Do you have any videos that show the flip necks down and stretched out?? Keep these videos coming.

[@coolbigrigs]

hi. Thanks for watching the video. If my memory serves me correctly I only have one video showing a flip neck down. The video is "Heavy Haul Peterbilt 567." somewhere within the playlist. Thanks again for watching. I appreciate your viewership.👍

High quality, interesting video, as usual, thanks. ..

I was at pacesetter looking to buy my own as they were building this trailer. I remember it because he specifically asked for a wet kit set up rather than the Honda motor. Sick video man!

It certainly is a beautiful setup. Thanks for watching the video. Your kind words are much appreciated.

[@GIGABACHI]

Disclaimer: I like heavy machinery but don't work with it so take my observations and opinions with a LOT of salt. It probably has the turning radius of the Titanic with that tag axle so far out back and probably goes thru tires like the Sun is not coming up tomorrow (too many non-steering wheels in a row). What's the purpose of the tag axle ? You would think that with 3 already on the trailer it would be enough to bear the load. 9:00 RIP asphalt, it was nice knowing you, LOL. Those tracks + weight are BRUTAL.

[@ronniehooperjr1]

For those that aren't looking or confused: 1 steer axle 2 drive axles 1 floater on the jeep (raised) 3 standard trailer axles 1 tag axle at rear of trailer = 8 axles total Standard DOT axle count... basis elementary math.

[@carolineperry6375]

Hello @ Ronnie Hooper, how are you doing?

[@Zubayer_Islam_Rezoan]

What does the tag axle do? How does it help?

[@ronniehooperjr1]

@@Zubayer_Islam_Rezoan the tag axle is another axle for proper weight distribution. The more weight you have the more axles you will need.

[@Zubayer_Islam_Rezoan]

@@ronniehooperjr1 Yes, but at 2:06 the tag axle is completely seperate. It's connected by a knob to the trailer, like a cat's tail. How is it taking some weight?

[@yankeewatchdog7299]

What make of trailer is that? I like it, and may want one

[@coolbigrigs]

The lowbed, jeep and booster is Pacesetter Check out their website at pacesettermfg.com Thanks for watching.

[@yankeewatchdog7299]

Thanks. I've been using an old Talbert, for a long time. Might be time to upgrade.

[@richardscott5611]

I’ve never seen a joe-dog with a flip. Would be cool to learn more about it.

[@coolbigrigs]

If I ever get another chance to video this setup, I definitely will get a closer view of everything. Thanks for watching the video!👍

[@alexismoor1305]

When you flip the jeep and trailer necks out to 3.5m. You can go up to 11,000kg on the jeep vs. 9000kg

[@heaveninhell6904]

I like your video bro, by the way your lowboy look very low profile, can you tell us the size of your tire, 255/70/22.5?

[@coolbigrigs]

I apologize for the delayed reply. Sick for a few months. Wish I could answer your question regarding tire size. unfortunately, I’m just a videographer. but I’m guessing you’re in the ballpark for tire size. Thank you for watching the video!👍😎🙏

[@cdarting91]

I’ve never seen a keep that tiny.

[@coolbigrigs]

indeed, they are quite small. However, to meet government Weight regulations they must be utilized. thanks for watching the video. Great appreciate your viewership.👍

[@jamescampbell7780]

Impressive truck, however, why is the trailer lifting mechanism scraping on the ground?

[@coolbigrigs]

Two reasons why the Removable Gooseneck scraped the pavement. 1) Being that the truck was only moving forward a few meters to allow room for loading, the RGN wasn't at its normal ride height. 2) As the truck moved forward the angle of the parking lot changed from downhill to uphill, causing the RGN to drag briefly on the pavement. Thanks for watching!

@@coolbigrigs OK didn't know that. That single axle jeep you use...are they easy to 'get along with'?? Ive only ever seen them in BC so I'm wondering what they're like to use.Right now I'm in the process of spec'ing a heavy haul tractor and trailer but would prefer a tandem drive as opposed to tri-drive. Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks.

[@thud9797]

@@7892rl Yes I'm curious about the single axle Jeep too.

[@Dachamp2001]

I do 8 axle and 13axle Lowboys and I still dont see the point on a Joe dog when you do the same thing with a tri-axle tractor 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@coolbigrigs]

Totally get what you're saying. Tandem tractor with single axle jeep (joe dog) is the majority choice as it provides more maneuverability for urban road geometry over tri-drive tractors. Dropping the jeep allows the tractor to be utilized elsewhere in an instant. Thanks for watching.

[@Dachamp2001]

I don't see the purpose of a single axle (joe dog) jeep just get a tractor with a pusher axle and call it a day

[@coolbigrigs]

Not that simple. Push axles are illegal here in B.C. (American rigs w/ push axles crossing the boarder into BC must raise the push axles, loaded or not.) Jeeps are utilized in BC for a few reasons. Like pushers, jeeps carry plus distribute weight when needed to meet regulations. Provincial in this case. Jeeps easily detach allowing tandem-drive tractors the freedom to pull countless varieties of trailers. I thank you for watching. Your viewership is appreciated.

[@Dachamp2001]

CR250R40 yep that sounds like b.c when ever i took my 13axle set-up to b.c i had to sit at the border and wait for the b.c transfer truck to take the load in cause i had to many axles on the ground and way over length but the joe dog aint no different from a pusher axle same spacing only difference is another Pivot Point

[@coolbigrigs]

It doesn't matter what side of the border, we all shake our head at our legislators. The legislative bodies making laws we must abide truly have no idea what they're talking about let alone care about the outcome which affects people just trying to make a buck to keep heads above water. Logic never applies to government. Stay safe out there!

[@thomaskraemer6583]

Drop the axle when you don't need it and you can haul an additional 1000 pnds legally.
