TRUCK CRANE STANDARD CARRIER EQUIPMENT

CARRIER CHASSIS

Chassis is Terex designed and built with a 8 x 4 drive. Box construction frame with internal diaphragms is fabricated form high strength alloy steel and provides superior frame rigidity. Full aluminum decking improves access and reduces weight. Four lockable storage compartments are built into decking along with standard mud flaps. Aluminum engine housing with sliding cover optimizes engine access while reducing weight and improving corrosion resistance.

AXLES AND SUSPENSION

Rear Axles - 60,000 lb (27 216 kg) capacity tandem axles with heat treated housing have inter-axle differential with lockout. Axles are mounted on standard air suspension system over equalizer beams with shock absorbs to distribute weight evenly.

Front Axles - 48,000 lb (21 772 kg) capacity tubular beam type axles are mounted on standard air suspension system over equalizer beams with shock absorbers.

TIRES AND WHEELS

Front: Four 445/65R22.5-20 R.R. All-Position type tubeless Rear: Eight 315/80R22.5-20 P.R. deep tread On/Off highway tubeless Aluminum wheels with stainless steel hub covers are standard.
