5 Ton Dimensions

[Artisan]

My 5 Ton is in Idaho, I am in L A.

The book says an M925A1 has a wheelbase of 179" .
I am correct that dim is from center of front axle to center of Rearmost axle yes?

So if tires are 49" in diameter the dimension from the front of
the front tire to the rear of the rear tire would be 19' correct?

With 11.00s its 206 from center of front tire to center of rear tire. So adding the difference on tires a little over 19ft

No, for our 6x6's the "wheelbase" as found in the TM's is always measured from center of front axle to the center line between the two rear axles.

Hmmm, so if I have a 20' long tilt trailer deck it will be cutting it close
I assume w/o some semi - serious math work.

Well it's an A1 w/ 1400R20's so looks lke were pushing the envelope.
Understand the front tires will go past the front edge of the trailer a smidge,
there is a 4" x 4" piec of angle iron that is adjustable at the front sooooo...

THANK U Simp!

It will fit on a 20ft. My deck is 19ft7in and a 5ton will fit in it.
