We bought a 50 Ton Modular Lowboy!! | What to look for and what to fix on the new Talbert Trailer

- We look at, don't buy, then do buy, and start working on our new Talbert 50 Ton modular lowboy! This trailer has a 4th axle and a beam insert as well as the drop side. This will allow us to move larger machines than we could with the old 35 ton Talbert.
Thanks for watching!

That’s a pretty sweet trailer, I can only imagine the stuff diesel creek can ask you to haul now.
Had to laugh when you were mulling over whether to bid or not, and Matt immediately nodding "Yes please!"
You came out pretty nice on the trailer purchase, sure gives more options for moving equipment. Thanks for the video Sam, appreciate your time and enjoyed watching.
I love watching you with your kid in the shop teach them real young. Great deal on the trailer with all the work you put into it over time hauling with the investment and work will pay off! 🍻
Good price on the trailer, great you're replacing the axles, good deal too. Nice Aistream trailer inside the garage. Wish mine was in an enclosed garage.
We’ll just stash this beam and 4th axle that will probably rarely be used…
(Ten minutes later)
We got a job for the beam and 4th axle! 😂🤣😅👍🏻
Can wait to see the complete trailer restoration and new axle install. 😁
Sam isn't screwing around going heavy duty all the way
Appreciate the effort you put into these Sam. Content is always interesting and your "presentation" skills just keep getting better. thank you from the land down under.
G’day Sam ! Love watching your videos ! From Australia! 🇦🇺 keep up the good work !
love watching your vids young fella , spent 47 years driving must admit i have a soft spot for the old Macks i owned a R600 with the 12 speed and then spent a bit of time logging with a super liner with an E9 and a 12 speed in her and loved it also Kenworths and CH macks and western stars . Cheers
Brilliant video Sam watching from Edinburgh Scotland UK 🇬🇧
Always like your videos Sam. Always interesting, always informative. Thanks.
You should do a restoration series for it. Ppl love that stuff. Strip it down sand blast it. Give it a lick of paint like your rig. Match the rims. How hard can it be. Could increase your views and subs. Those channels with that type of content always blow up dramatically. Something for ppl to tune into each week. Look at matts dream shop build. And that wasn't even a week by week think. Fsrmcraft101 with johns excavator, Matt at north west pacific hillbilly and his dozer. You need a series to grow your channel.
To a complete novice, driving such a trailer with a huge load is beyond scary and would require more courage than I have. Admire the experience you have with heavy hauling. You and Matt make a great team, lots of synergy there.
What an amazing video mate thanks for sharing this with us all great job
At 23:00, nice bird nest! 🤣
Yay! New scrappy video!
HEY! Good morning Sam!
Hello SAM, You should restore this trailer. I mean Full overhaul. 😏✌
Play it again sam , played your cards right on that deal!!
Very interesting & informative video. You make some good calls.
The “scolloping” on that inside tyre on the middle axle is caused by stuffed shock absorbers,and yes one tyre at a time can go that way … once the scolloping starts there’s no stopping it ..
Now Sam needs 3rd axle under the tractor
Always working 😎
You make great Videos 👍Keep-em- coming
Up here in Canada we call that kind of trailer a float.
Great video Sam love your content 👌
Amazing 😮
Great content as usual
Great video!! Excellent! Cheers!;-)!
Kinda surprised about the brake chambers. Every trailer from the 90s I've pulled had spring chambers. Maybe im wrong, but i had thought spring brakes were required on trailers after late 70s or early 80s. Its a damn nice unit though!
Edit: Did a search and found they are required on atleast one axle staring in 1998! So carry on, my concerns are gone!
Oh Snap
Running tapered axles isn't going to hurt. I perfer propower axles they same to hold up little better on the ends for the heavier weights
Just loved this episode- wondered where you were going when you returned the trailer but we all knew you would end up with it (the title) how much did the seller loose by not dropping the price for you roughly?😊🇬🇧
Could you use the 4th axle to replace the Bent ones on the trailer??? Oops should've finished the video first 😂
👍🏻🍻
So what happened to not wanting another project ? Were it's been rebadged as a 35 ton, can you still license it as a 50 ton ?
MM77 Approved 👍🏼 👍🏼………………………………………………….. 32:20 You just have to be ready when you are called!
I have seen this complaint on the road many times
👍👍👍
22:50 there is a bird's nest with an egg in it on the middle hydraulic cylinder.
Just curious whats the reasoning behind not getting spring brakes on the new axles?
Sam how come no spring brakes?
I would be very wary of standing under the boom of the loader. I know a person who was killed when a hydraulic line blew and the boom dropper on him while he was greasing the bucket.
Hope ya didn't leave the old fittings sit in the gooseneck
Nothing easy about those things.
loader has a birds nest with an egg in it.
those dual air valves suck worked at Peterbilt for ever and he'd more problems with these than Carter had liver pills went to single valves
stay away from disc brakes my Fontaine had to had a brake job last yr with its disc brakes my god talk about outrageous it was 440 per rotor 200 per pad set and i needed a caliper and it was 900 on top of 1400 in labor and it was hard to get things apart ill never buy a disc braked trailer again bottom line it ran close to 5k for a brake job in my opinion drum brakes are much more cost effective even if you needed to replace them a little sooner
