    Oh Lord, we need to get yall out of those crapcadias and into a hood quick before midnight!
    just as you can dump your airbags on your drive axles, some of the guys like to put a valve on the front axle with a switch on the dash. Drop the air in the front, instant cool :)

    For all you haters that like to hate...
    My truck & trailer is a reflection of ....ME.. And its a very important part of my business.. I spend most all my time in my truck.. so its going look & be the part of my buniness I want it to be
    If I was a Dr. Or Attorney.. i would not want my office to be cardboard box in the crappy part of town.. thats why I don't pull my wagon with a gutless crapcaidia or a volvoless crapbox shack and expect to get good results
    So if I want a streached out Pete and lite up from bumper to bumper with chicken lights.. then so be it ..its my money, & time..you only get back what you put in just like any other business
    And you haters just keep haten

    There’s truck drivers that you see that are the haters. They’re the ones in a curb sniffer always angry at the world. They’re the ones that are grumpy and stop wearing jeans and a good looking shirt.
    Then there’s the ones that have trucking in their blood. You can tell at first glance. No mistaking. Nothing wrong with that belt buckle. I wear mine.

    Its just funny how someone could hate on another persons equipment because it has alot of lights and chrome and a stretch frame etc.... Its usually always the guys that have the good looking rigs that are the first ones to come ask if ya need help when ur wrenching on something, or help fold tarps, or roll straps, or just strike up a conversation while ur waiting to get loaded . while the volvo dudes are scrolling thru their phone in the drivers seat and wearing a safety vest for some unknown reason.

    I believe its the center of axle one ( steer)
    And axle 2. ( front tandem. Or drives) axle 3 is not a drive Untill you flip a switch.
    But I could be wrong

    On a 3 axle truck it’s center of the steer to the center of your drive axles.
