  • Today we transport a 11,500lb tractor on a 4,500lb Trailer at a 21K GVWR! Something a little different than usual, but I enjoy doing this type of work with the truck! Possibly thinking about purchasing a medium duty equipment trailer to do more of this in the future.

    A MM 670 tractor weighs between 6350 and 6,550 lbs , I looked it up on tractor data. You can add another 1,000 lbs for the loader, it has 18.4x34 rear tires if they have fluid in them it’s weight would be 1,700 for both tires. So about 7,550lbs with a front loader and about 9,250lbs with fluid in the rear tires. I have a 25ft gooseneck trailer that weighs 5,500lbs from the looks of that bumper hitch trailer I thinking it should weighs about 4,000lbs , so I guessing trailer and tractor together weighs about 13,250 lbs. . The frame on that trailer is not near as heavy as mine. Over all a good video and a Duramax can pull the tractor ant trailer with no problem at all. Probably didn’t even break a sweat. I have a lb7 Duramax and I have pulled 14 round 4x5 bales of hay that weighs at least 950 to 1,000 lbs a peace plus 5,5000lbs trailer so total 19,000lbs.

    Cool truck! I LOVE towing heavy with my truck. It's so much fun to put an upgraded truck to the test, isn't it?
    I'd really recommend using wheel chocks on your truck and trailer when loading something like that. When the truck and trailer get shoved forwards and backwards like that, you can break the parking pawl in the transmission.

      @DIYDiesel  Před 2 lety

      Appreciate it! Ya I for some reason didn’t have them with me. Bought a set to keep in the truck now tho! Not a fan seeing the truck do that lol
      Your 100% right tho love doing actually testing when you upgrade parts!

      @@DIYDiesel no....but not only can you tell by looking at it google has a lot of info about everything. When a typical tractor gets to the 11k lb range it usually has a hoe on it also. Atleast more implements than a front end loader. Some of the tractors I've hauled has been pretty heavy....even with a hoe but none has weighed 11k.
