It's been on YouTube for a few years can't figure why they have a newish excavator and a battered old wagon. It's to big for wagon the stress on the back axle and chasis must be tremendous. We load our 3 to 8 ton machines that way onto truck or tractor trailer takes a steady nerve when in the 3 ton getting it up 5 foot haha
