That is a very nice cooker excellent job!!!!! One question so are you saying the axels are 7000 lb for a total of 14000 lb or are they 2 3500 lb for a total of 70000 lb I have seen 3500 / 5200. Never seen7000 though what size wheel and tire are those

:LG:

That is one nice cooker and it will cook for an army.


As for the axle, That would be a really heavy duty axle for that size tires.

I can only find 15 inchers in 225/75 R15 with a max load rating of 2540# using 6 lugs.....

The beast is done took it to the jeep safari in moab Utah this weekend. We served around 700 people. I fired the beast up Thursday at 1 am and it did not cool down till Friday at 7 p.m. It worked great the best bbq that I have ever cooked. The color and flavor was awsome. Once it got up to temp it maintained with out a problem. I could not have asked for any thing more. I wish I had some pictures of the event but it was so crazy I didn't have time to take photos. Next time I will have to take some one to take pictures.
