I was wondering wha others have been able to haul with their Sweptline... I just hauled 2 pallets of clinker brick... a little over 1,000 bricks. The clinkers weigh about 7 lbs each. A 7,000 pound load in the bed. Fortunately I didn't have to go very far, about 15 miles. One guy with a Tundra

I just did 1750 lbs of wood flooring and it didn't blink. I once loaded it down to the top of the bed with asphalt and the tires were almost flat. I went to the corner to fill up at about 15 mph and it was swaying all over. I came back and unloaded half of it for a lighter load. I had to replace the axle seals afterward and wondering if that load contributed. Didn;t bend anything thank heavens.
