![]() ![]() If we are spreading I like some one to walk along beside the trailer and work the crank. We hauled enough that year we got a nice discount from the quarry.We had several farmers with long lanes that only graveled the wheel tracks.

Also have hauled pea gravel in hopper with no issues. Sometimes I haul it back and spread it in peoples driveway if I am not busy. Just just don't dump into the hopper all at once. I am not really crazy about it, but the guy loading gravel takes it easy and not damage the hopper. I have, hauled grain to the river port and back haul gravel to shop.

I also will dump the air bags on the trailer, then open the hopper door all the way open, and drive straight ahead to leave a windrow of gravel. ![]() Make sure you dump out the back hopper first so your truck will have weight on the drive axles.

I'm thinking road gravel or slightly larger for the yard.maybe 15-20 ton at a crack? What's your thoughts? It would be in an older 42' Timpte/full size rig, I would not dare gross 80k though. I need some gravel pretty bad for the yard and pea rock for setting posts.How many have hauled rock in a grain trailer and have been fine with that.I don't need much pea rock, maybe a couple pay loader bucket fulls, so I think that would be fine, but I think I could haul a couple months worth of gravel for the yard.
