This machine pays homage to my childhood hero, the Terex
Titan 33-19 which held the title of the largest heavy haul truck for over 2
decades with a payload capacity of 350 tons and a diesel electric power plant
producing 3,300 HP. It was basically a heavy duty freight locomotive on pneumatic
tires.
My updated Titan was able to get 14 degrees of steering out of both rear axles
(the 33-19 only got 4 degrees) by using a tall closed box construction rear
chassis that oscillates
where it joins to the front chassis (the dump bed completely rests on the rear
chassis). I was also able to squeeze in two side by side 3400 HP diesel
electric power plants (total of 6800 HP) to haul its max 560 ton load capacity.
