brakes shown with max GAWR of 29,000 lb and greater, FMVSS-121 is not applicable.
Recommended Options
• Wide brake package for longer brake life to reduce operating cost, see page 34
• LMS (Low-Maintenance System) brakes and hubs for extended lubrication intervals, simplifi ed hub installation and reduced
bearing endplay
• ADB (air disc brake) on steer axles for improved braking performance
• ADB (air disc brake) on all vehicle axles for improved fade resistance and stopping power
• 19.5" wheel package for signifi cantly reduced weight and lower frame height:
Steer axle: ES1506D
