Sunday quiz for the TLB truckers...

Why do some artics have one pair of wheels on the tractor jacked up on the rotatey-rear-axle thing? Save the tyres if you haven't got a full load on?

 

On newer trucks the rear axle lowers or raises depending on weight to save on tyre wear.

Older trucks had a manual switch

 

Yep, It's to do with axle/gross weight limits, not all units have a lift axle though. You'll see a lot of trailers have a lift axle too
Here's my jalopy

 

all 4 of my trailer wheels lift up when I take a speed hump to fast.

 

I'm impressed
