Is this a class 8 truck or smaller? Plenty of headroom in the cabover. https://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1997-Freightliner-FL-70-...QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem |
Definitely smaller; it's a Class 7, as all FL70's are.
Actually, when you remove an axle from a tandem setup, TECHNICALLY it becomes a Class 7 due to its lower GVW. The reason FL70's are "true" Class 7's is because they all use a medium-duty engine and drivetrain, as do FL80's. The FL112 (same cab and style of hood) is a true Class 8 due to the use of heavy-duty engines and drivetrains. Does this help you? Gary |
https://www.truckhome.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif Not a bad deal?? I think the way they load that bike is a little Hilligan though. I be darned if I would put any of my scoots in a sitiuation like that. But then again they are from the South. Does that look like just a reguler cargo body that was converted. To anybody else?

the loading of the bike method looks unusual. sort of like what you'd expect if you were on a jobsite and a group of guys were trying to figure out how to get the bike into the truck using the lift and you were expected to do it alone... may look odd, but if it works and nothing breaks or you don't fall, they were successful. as long as the straps don't break all is well... https://www.truckhome.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif |

so a class 8 becomes a class 7 when you remove one of the two rear axles but remains a class 8 if you keep the two rear axles...? now if I can only remember all of this... https://www.truckhome.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif was warpath's first rig a class 8 or 7? did it start off with 2 rear axles and one was removed or did it only have one rear axle and if it only had one rear axle, was it a class 8...? is there such a thing as a class 8 with one rear axle? thankyou. |
....It is a furniture van with a lot of miles on it.....speed is poor...... 7 speed bad tranny- they fail a lot....3126 re-manufactured is good with warrranty and receipts......lift gate is "different" and would kill me dead but someone with a little welding could add a side ways lift attachment lift and be a LOT safer.....flat front means 6mpg at best maybe less at X-way speeds......40k is too much-just from pix...geofkaye
