[QUOTE="98989, post: 12108218, member: 20565"]Unimog u500? Which type of tires and dimmension? Twin steer 8x4 wont work well offroad, it sits on front axles and lose traction. Mb had load sharing front suspension to compensate height and make it smoother on terrain to make less drag. We use straight front axles to get more ground clearance to eliminate that twin steer problem. In europe finland has most of 4 timber trucks. They use all kind of setups. Twin steer, wide spread twin steer, tridem with lead (i believe it is best for them) or trailing axle. How common is use of CTI on BC loggers? NZ and australia use it often. Scotland use it often.[/QUOTE]
