Re: IH5070 Paystar 6X6 70+ ton rotator

I think a B&B 80 ton, Miller 1075, Jerr Dan 70/85 and NRC Heavy Incident Manager will all get the job done.
Personally, I like the look of the Miller, especially on a twin steer chassis. They all make twin steer models but I prefer the look of a 72 inch front axle spread which Miller uses, whereas Jerr Dan and NRC both have the second axle behind the cab. B&B doesn't have a standard twin steer configuration but I think they recently doing one on a stock T800 twin steer chassis.
Regardless, your Paystar is going to be awesome!

I'm actually pondering a twin steer , and with the axial trans slid back I got the space for it . I can even slide it back more . could be a reality with the time it is taking me to build it .
