M939A1 Axle rating

[Glenngineer]

Is there any literature out there for the on road axle specs and ratings for the M939A1 trucks from Rockwell or Meritor ?

Curious why your asking. The rating is 10 tons on road. Thats roughly 12500 lbs per axle. I would be curious what Rockwell rates them at.

The axle ratings and the truck GVWR are two different things. The truck is rated to carry 10 tons. See the data plate on the dash.
