Took delivery of new L47TLB the other day. Loaded her in 14' PJ low pro dump for the ride home. Other than lashing tractor in a very cramped space, I experienced no other problems. Once load was secured, I drove/towed at 10 -25 mph braking hard, no problems. Once on highway and up to speed, I changed lanes,swerving from side to side from 50-75 mph in 5 mph increments. She tracked perfectly, with no sway. Stopped after 10 miles, checked load and she was tight.
I did turn loader bucket up to gain another foot of clearance for turning. Wheel hard over while turning resulted in 12-15 inches clearance to shell/tailgate.
Although the dump is adequate to transport tractor, I will purchase 20' tilt equipment trailer. Narrowed down choices to Another PJ, Lamar, or Great Northern ( locally built).
Any and all comments welcome.
