Cob.....

She comes with a back up beeper n wide load sign. But she won't get up n off it long enough to use them.
Fortunately Dee is nothing like her
BillyP, not offended at all. I tolerate it because it's Dee's sister

In that picture I can see that the rear axle is a lift axle . In the first picture it must have been on a hump so it looked like it was on the ground??

G Day Brocky....
                          I think optical illusion plays a part in this,,,, no lift axle.
Some tyres look a different size. while others are just about flat etc...etc...
and on uneven ground as well............

I can't see it clearly enough to be sure, but it appears that all hubs are slightly different, and so maybe even the twin steer is a later addition?
And it appears to be single drive with a lazy axle, unless they are top-loader diffs and i can't see the tailshaft?
Not sure what it's story is...............
