Here's one with a BIG load of wet mulch.
The auxiliary springs were really "HELPER" springs that day !!! Last edited by Steve Hafner; 08-22-2011 at 05:54 AM. |

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
Here are some pics of my grandfather's 1970 C20 bringing in a load of hay in the winter of 1976.

Holy Hay Bails!
No pictures, but I had two loads of 50 sheets of drywall and 40 cases of tile in my 69 (before I converted it to 1/2 ton) |

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
How about some heavy loaded trailers? Can't load up the inside like a truck very well lol Towed my burb on the trailer which was 8,000lbs combined, 73 Army chassis truck was roughly 10,000lbs combined and the white trailer loaded up was 12,000lbs.
Towed all those loads with no problems with the 350.

In looking at them over the years, I've always wondered how they loaded it up so high in the first place. They must have had someone with a strong back throwing the bales up to the person stacking on top of the load, but even so... They were clearly proud enough of themselves that they took the pics, but your guess is as good as mine as to how it was done.
