    Hey guys. I'm working on a heavy haul truck currently. I decided to rebuild my drive axles from 54" to 60" spread cause 60" spread gives you more permit weight per axle in some states. Do you know any professional shop who can do such a job? It's not easy in my oppinion and will need some drilling and frame extension so I'm looking for professionals who could do something like that anywhere in the US. Thank you!

    Gaumer Industries in Chambersburg PA.

    They actually designed some of KWs suspension parts.
