Spreads or Tandems

The dump valves can be added later at any time. I run spread axle trailers and have in cab switches to control each axle individually on the fly.

 

I've never pulled a reefer but my skate had a dump on the rear axle and had it wired to a factory in dash switch. Made backing a breeze empty but I never liked to dump it much when loaded. Just had to watch the tail swing with the rear axle lifted. Recaps FTL...

 

the reefer i'm trying to buy has both axles set up as lift axles. A dump dumps the air taking the pressure off the axle s it will scrub easier allowing you to choose which axle to pivot off of. the lift actually lifts it in the air

 

It's got dumps to al and u don't wanna lift it when making turns or backing.

 

I know that.. shut up. I'm showing off here!

 

you mean I can't put 150 pounds of air in the tiers, lift one axle loaded and roll across the empty lane at the scales???? man, what good is it then?

 

I personaly would pay the extra $1500 to get the spread. I hate the recaps, but whatever.

As for the independent dumps on each axle, you can not get that feature from the factory, however I know there are dealers that will install it for you. Perhaps not every dealer though. Independent dumps swithes from the cab is the shizz

 

they void warranty which is why you won't find them from the factory

 

Yes, that is the reason. Plus that set-up is illegal, like we really GAF....(grin)
