Peterbilt wants $175 for a torque arm. I have a couple old torque arms off my brother's truck that I could rebush, I found poly bushings for $90...

Well I'm guessing the factory didn't put this one on because the paint on the 3rd axle was still pretty shiny while the rest of the suspension...
I loaded next to guy out of Montana a few weeks ago that had a fairly new tandem axle dry van with a liftable/steerable 3rd axle on the back. It...
LOL, That's a hell of a way to run a business.
Yeah I don't know, there's an outfit out of Sioux falls that pulls doubles & they love the mbe4000. I was just pulling a spread ax grossing...
