Choice Of Two Configurations...
111-inch
- with a front axle just 29 inches from the bumper to keep
the wheelbase as long as possible for any given body length. Helps maximize bridge formula loading. Puts more engine ahead
of the cowl for convenient serviceability.
113-inch
- with a front axle set back 49 inches to keep the wheelbase
as short as possible for any given body length. Improves maneuverability and increases payload capacity by transferring a
greater share of the body or kingpin load forward.
Choose from these and a great many more L-Line options to
achieve the ideal vehicle
for your application.
