jakebrake86 Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 I've got a deal worked out to buy a pretty sweet old slide bar D8. My question is, does anybody have a rough idea what one would weigh? It has the blade and winch on it. I'm guessing somewhere around 40,000 lbs. I'll get some pics soon. Quote Jake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r686st Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 Dang, Jake I need to go to work for you! You'll have to buy more land to store all your goodies:) What does the fleet consist of now? My dad had a D8 from the 60's or 70's with sweeps, screens and a winch and I think it was a 100k pound machine. Don't know if this helps, but that will give you an extreme idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
