 Topic: 6080 help
Posted: 02 Apr 2011 at 6:28pm |
Can anybody tell me how tall a 6080 with 34" rear rubber and cab is? A buddy is interested in one that's a long haul, and he wonders if it can be hauled on his 5th wheel without being over height.
Thanks, Stu

We hauled ours on a deck over 25' with dove tail. it was about 12' to the top of the muffler. No cab though but i think the stack should be about the same as the top of cab.

I would say youd be alright. Ive hauled my 7080 with a cab on my gooseneck deckover. The 7000 series is just under 10ft tall, I know its taller than a 6080.

They hauled them from the factory on regular flatbeds. That was one of the design targets------be under 13' 6" loaded on a regular truck flatbed (4WD's excluded). You will still want to measure it and keep an eye on any height signs as you drive.

Howdy Stu,
My AC 6080 with 34 rears 4x4 is 106 inches at the cab and 9 foot 2 inches at the muffler. You can always let air out too!
Thanks Kurzy
