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)

I really like the picture with the hay.

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

Had a whole heap of wood in the back today...wish I had known there was gonna be thread about haulin loads.
Here's an old pic.

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.

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

Sorry, but I honestly have no idea. I was just a wee lad when those pics were taken.

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.

Here's one of a load of scrap lumber I picked up around the place on my old 72.

:metal: Great pics!

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

i would never do that....i only beef 'em up. you never know when your truck will be needed to....well....be a truck. my dad put 3/4 ton coils on the back of his 72 burb c10. sat up nice and high in the rear even when loaded down with a big trailer. i picked up a pair of new 3/4 ton HD springs from LMC to install on my 72 burb c20 and will keep the stock rear coils for retrofit onto a possible future project (2wd blazer comes to mind).

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

Here is a couple. As can be seen, I really put my '72 to the test and it passed with flying colors. After I retire it (hopefully soon), going to start restoring it.

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

None of these are large loads. Just random pictures of some of my trucks when they had something loaded on them. I wish I had pictures of some of the loads I've had on these:

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

Wow how much did that weigh, and how did you get it out ?

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

Mine with my ugly 97 yamaha vmax in the back. Longbed FTW.

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

We were told 2000 lbs ? Getting it out was easy. Just tied it off to our dredge bucket/bar-b-que, grabbed 1st gear and slid her out.

Re: Pics of our trucks - payload
 

Nope, stock leaf springs. 42 yrs of hauling stuff and no broken leafs!
