[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 219564, member: 9"] Yes, 2 load bars are standard with a system. We have the Trancell Technology T-500 system (5000# X 36" long bars) mfg. in Buffalo Grove, IL. The control module also has a feature to hook up to a computer for saving data; however, we just manually record weights from the digital read-out then put data on our Longhorn Max 2 software program. We set our bars about 6" in from the ends of our 84" frame platform. The bottom of the load bars have 2 adjustable hard rubber feet that prevent bars from moving. Also, on the bottom of our frame platform, we welded two 1" angle irons and this 4.5" space slips over each bar to keep things from shifting. Bars come with 15' of cables. Our 2" angle iron frame supports our 1800# LH bull since his feet are close to load bars which take bulk of weight load. If one is unsure about weight strength you could use 3" angle iron frame. We also use butt bars on each end of 2 Priefert gates to keep smaller animals from stepping off of platform since our gates are 10' long and platform is only 7' long. [/QUOTE]
