Step 1: Before to take a big cargo, you must buy a big truck.

To realize this achievement, you need a truck (logical). But don't buy a low-cost truck, because this is not so heavy. You must buy a big truck, and especially a Peterbilt 389 Ultra Cab Sleeper.

Yes, I know, this is expensive. But you have no choice. But there is no modification to do after the purchase, so don't worry about this.

Step 2: Select a heavy cargo

The next step is select a heavy cargo. And the heaviest cargo of the DLC, the transformer (No, not the film, the object).
You can find it in Phoenix, in Arizona. You find the cargo in the Plaster & sons compagies.

The place where is it

And the cargo

Step 3: after all that, you can go to a Weigh Station (Don't forget to gas up before)

Do you think that with a heavy cargo and a heavy truck is enough? Unfortunately for you, no.
Why? Because your gas tank must be fill at maximum.
That's why I advise you to make your weigh in a gaz station. Get your fill at the gaz station first. Then weigh your truck. And finally, you unlock the achievement.

Well, that's it for me. I hope this guide was helpful. If you have a question, ask it in the comment down below.

u dont need a full tank. i had half a tank and still got 178,561 lbs. Got called into a weigh station before i got to a gas station with scales. but to make sure i did fill up later and then got 179,461. But think it depends on if u customise ur truck to add more weight to it instead of the off the shelf truck.
I fully loaded up my truck with as many extras as i could fit on it when i bought it.

There is quite a few places around the map that does the transformer. i got mine from Stockton CA and went to Tacoma WA. I saw 6 in diff cities but were to far away and not enough expiry time to get them them so as Stockton was the closest to where i was and had a 14 hrs expiry and i was 8 hrs away i took that 1. there might have been more but i stopped looking when i found the Stockton 1. none in Phoenix though.

Okay thanks

if you're speaking about trailer. Yes, you can find them in any city on the map. Just take a "transformator" cargo and be sure that your fuel tank is full.

Can you also find them in la or in oxnard?

This was great, thank you! I stopped twice during a mission with a Peterbilt truck/Transformer cargo, and the first time I stopped on max fuel it was 170,065lb, but when i had to stop again a short while after it was 169,977lb, so the fuel thing is incredibly important to remember. You dont have to be pulled in for an inspection but you can stop at one with a fuel pump for the achievement.
