Looks like you've got yourself a "poor man's low-rider" there! Who needs a lowering kit-just shovel on a ton of dirt, crank up the stereo and go look for some street races!!

 

Cool photo though! What're you going to do with that dirt, anyways?

[Wingnut]

I used it to level out the low spots in the front yard...I am going to get another load later

this week. Had a turd floater this morning, and washed a lot of it away.

 

I should probably check the weather this time.

 

Oh well, they only charge $10 bucks for 1.5 tons.(minimum charge).

looks like my truck a few wks back. How did they load it??? They used a bobcat to load mine. It was funny because at a stop light i was next to a lowrider newbodystyle silverado. He was digging the low rider Z71

 

I didnt get any pics because it started to rain which wasnt fun. I had to shovel it all out in the rain

I had to shovel it all out in the rain

I don't envy you that task.

 

I'm not current on my front-end loader model numbers, but the one that did mine was huge. One bucket

would fill a dump truck. You should have seen the guy trying not to squash my truck with 10

tons of dirt. That would have sucked...As I was in it.

[RyanbabZ71]

I know how you feel. I was in the cab and it felt like that gmc commercial with the guy sitting in his truck and they add the dirt. It didnt shake to bad. It actually held the weight better than i thought (and my mom only wanted a wheel barrel full haha we used all of what i got could you imagine all the trips i would have taken>???)

[Wingnut]

I was pretty impressed with how well it took the weight.

 

I was also pleasantly surprised at the Protec bed. Beat on (inside and out OOPS!!) with shovels,

hit with the wheelbarrow, and generally abused (I'm not very careful), not a scratch. Whatever "composite"

materiel they use on the inside, is some pretty stout stuff. I give it

geez!!!! they charge $20 a yard here.

 

next time borrow a dump trailer

3000lbs so you have 1 1/2 Yards of dirt... I your going to fill in spots in your yard I would use shredded or No. 2 kick out... Or if you needed a lot of dirt I could deliever you a single axle about 9 ton, tandem, tri-axle... For a pickup truck at the our shredder we get $10.00 too. But as you buy more we give you a better price..

 

Also about loading.. you are suppose to use a bobcat, Newholland, cat, Posi trac or something small and put in about 1/2 yard at a time. 1 yard of dirt goes for right around 2000lbs. Anyways we load pickups with a 973 Cat. And the bucket is bigger than the truck... It's funny to see people look at you when you put a bucket full of dirt over their 30K+ truck then drop a load on them and watch it go to the ground... I get a kick out of it. Especially the Tundra owners, not a jab just they squat fast, faster than the older toyotas anyways... We get so many people come up on the hill we shred at and ask for 2 yards of dirt in their 1/2 tons it ain't funny.. I'll load them until their bumper touches the ground then I'm done.. even then most of them lose their spare tires about have way down the hill just from dragging the ground..it's a good time running Top Soil sometimes.. That's where I learn what these trucks all makes models and configs.. will really hold payload wise..

I watched a guy once with a 6" lift on a half ton truck load up 2 tons of gravel in the back of his truck........

 

He could've shown the way to heaven with his lights
