Just wondering if it's been bobbed (the 5-ton). Any pics of bobbed trucks with duals on the rear?? Thanks all!

I can attest to the loss of braking power with the drop of 1 axle - especially when you add the 16.00 XL's. Can create some pucker factor in short / panic stops.A single axle would cut down on weight, rotational mass etc at the loss of flotation and braking power.
Loosing an axle and the bogey would drop (as a guess), what 2,500#, max? Figure a shortened bed and frame for 800-1,000#? However, you loose 1/3 of the braking capacity in the process.
