Kenworth T659 8x4 with chain throwers and auto tensioners | New Zealand Trucks | Beyond the Noise

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Whether physical, mental, emotional, or behavioural, barriers are there to be conquered. Walled in by physical barriers, the locals of the Tasman region have had to apply themselves to innovation, invention, and redefining the norm to keep pace in a young country that scurried to catch up with the rest of the world. As accessible and connected as we might be in 2022, that regional DNA still flourishes, finding solutions where others might see obstacles. This month we visit a company that exemplifies it all, Waimea Contract Carriers, and its new Kenworth T659 8×4 and five-axle Waimea Engineering log trailer.

    What kind of payload do they carry and is it cost efficient to piggyback the trailers all the time because I didn’t think they ran that far ?

    Depends on permits , can go upto 58t witch is around 39.5t payload , and major Hiway’s only can go upto 61t gross weight, Literally only take’s minutes to put the trailer on the back , saves RUC , tyres and at most skid sites I went to you couldn’t turn around a T&T
