HLT liftable axle air suspensions are specifically designed for the rough duty that construction sites demand. For over four years, the HLT has operated as a high lift tag axle on crane trucks, concrete mixers and block trucks providing maximum ground clearance in on and off highway conditions.
Rated at 13,000 pounds capacity, the HLT liftale air suspension has 19” of total axle travel. The axle lift air spring is mounted by means of a small parallelogram. The parallelogram allows the HLT to achieve the extra travel without over stressing the crimped mounting plates of the air springs. The air spring mounting plates remain parallel through-out the entire suspension travel. Most high lift air suspensions fan the lift air spring when the axle is lifted causing stress at the front edges of the air spring crimped plates.
The HLT incorporates a standard “I” beam axle for durability and standard component parts.
