At work at salt lake international, i was asked to carry a compressor from a CFM-56 jet engine off a Boeing 737.
There was only one, and it was boxed up, but it took up all my bed, and weighed the truck down pretty good.
But she did great, this was very rare that this happens, as these are usually carried by certain trucks, but it was urgent and unexpected.

The point being here, it was just awesome to carry such an expensive important part of something in my little 88 Ranger.
And i would have put up pics, but when your at work, it's rare that you'll have your camera with you.

 

I always have mine, you should have yours. That's something I would have to see to believe

 

Yeh im with him, plus i thought everybody had a camera phone these days lol.

 

I think you guys are thinking a compressor is much bigger than it is.
They are no bigger than a regular home tv, and only weight like 310 pounds.

It's just the packaging, it makes it bigger than it is.

Not impressed....go over to trf and maybe you'll get a few fanboys. lul.

 

i've hauled a basic detroit 8V92 engine in the back of my ranger... everything but the block and crank and boy that was a **** load of weight

 

I hauled a 1/4 ton of gravel. 50 feet. oh yeah. jealous.

 

I had to pick up 10, 80lb bags of cement... that was a FUN ride to the job

 

Ive had to plow something in my truck once...it was intense, she was a screamer

 

in my old F150 a few years back.
An Turbomeca Arriel 1D1 from a Eurocopter AS350B2 (AStar).

 

Yeah, but that 310 lb load probably cost close to a half million. Those compressors ain't cheap. LR
