Tanker to Tipper?

You will soon notice that an eight legger handles a lot better than a six, much more stable on corners for a start and it wont try to go straight on in wet conditions when you really want to turn left or right like a double drive six will! Depending on suspension etc the chances are that you will get stuck at some time, the second steeering axle causes problems as that can get bogged or drop into a hole and that is when traction is lost due to the drag from pushing a &#;dead&#; axle through &#;&#;&#;&#;! Also rubber rear suspension tends to lose traction as it doesn&#;t flex enough to keep all the wheels on the ground. Age of motor is immaterial if it is well maintained, we had some 15+ years old and they gave no problems. Take no notice of those who say that you need to teararse about, they are &#;busy fools&#; and probably doing at least one load a day for little or no money, it isn&#;t what the truck earns but what the operator gets to keep that is important in day to day runing costs and gulping diesel for crap rated work is daft. I had 20+ years on the job and enjoyed it all, but I had three good gaffers that didn&#;t expect me to do anything that they wouldnt.
