That must be a western Canada thing because you see quite a few spread axles in eastern Canada, usually on US trucks. I remember when I first came to Canada about 4 years ago someone at my company mentioning those spread axles and saying that its Alberta that doesn’t like them, which is why very few Canadian firms have them as it limits the scope of their operations but I didn’t know you could slide them like that so I’ve learnt something now. Does the rear axle always stay where it is or can that be moved too?
The rear axle is fixed, but i can lift it when empty which increases the mpg a bit… lifting it also turn the truck into a 4 axle and makes toll roads a bit cheaper!
