Tri-axle trailers with singles on front axle

As Hayseed said they could play with the weighbridge, there was a movie made about it i cant find it on youtube, they would come on a weighbridge where you weighed the truck then the trailer. They would let the air out so it threw weight on the truck, thyen as they pulled forward put plenty air in so the pusher was taking weight of the truck and make the tri heavy,the movie was based on the grain board in nsw i thnk it was based on true events i think in the movie it said they discovered not as much grain in the silos as there should have been

It didn’t take long for the rule change that no air operations of a lift axle could be done from the cab.

Not my piccie, what a stunning Deutz and a stylish

 trailer

Deutz Jupiter ...very fast truck in its day with over 200hp V8. ..... lot of problems with blown head rings and cracked heads untill they put temperature controlled cooling shutters in them.
