  • This rig is 198' long, 15'5" wide, 350,000 lbs and 19 axles. It's amazing to watch this thing maneuver around the parking lot. Another video will be uploaded soon, showing this rig being loaded onto the S.S. Badger.

    The back part looks like it is powered so it can pivot on it's own without the truck moving. Is that correct or does it just seem that way?

    • @carlorea74

      You need the truck moving, otherwise you cannot steer, the rear half of the 19 axle is powered only for steering the three axle groups.

    • @nickcarter9538
      @nickcarter9538 6 лет назад +3

      I was thinking the same thing, I think it must have a hydraulic drive on the rear bogie powered by whatever was screaming away in the grey box, there is no way the tractor could cause that movement at the rear.

    • @derekwhite9932

    • @mattkasper4457
      @mattkasper4457 6 лет назад +1

      The truck pulles it all and the rear has hydrolic steering just lile the front. At eachaxle set on the trailor pivet in the center to get the steer.

    • @nickcarter9538
      @nickcarter9538 6 лет назад +1

      Yes I understand the steering mechanism of the rear bogie sections, but the loading orientation of the trailer mechanism would be colossal to get the rear of the trailer to move two or three times as fast as the front as appears to be the case.

    • @martinpoulsen6564
      @martinpoulsen6564 6 лет назад +1

      It's hard to determine by the RPM's on the APU, if it is used for traction as well as steering. It would make perfect sense, but it also might depend on how old the rig is. The fact that it goes down a lot in RPM's, when steering action is applied, could suggest that it is a smaller engine, used for steering only. It seems it would not have to work as hard to make the turn, if it had to drive a pump for propulsion as well. That it would have a more linear power use. Hard to tell though.

    • @austinmoehring6110
      @austinmoehring6110 9 месяцев назад +1

      There has to be a way for that vehicles tires to be able to slide across the asphalt instead. It must be hard on the asphalt and equipment to make a turn like that. I was thinking like teflon "sleds" that can be pulled down onto the tires. Sorta like a motorcycle visor. Just leave one axle to brake. When your going that slow it should be safe. Or have a crew lay some sheets down as it drags along the asphalt.
