Truck and Tractor Axle, Brake and Transfer Case Applications and Ratings
The permitted use of axles, brakes, transfer cases and other components, including the capacity ratings that are shown, vary with application and service. Applications and installation must be approved by Meritors engineering departments. Failure to gain applications approval, or use of componentry in non-approved applications can void Meritors warranty coverage. Refer to publication TP-9441, Axle Application Guidelines, for vocational guidelines on axle applications. Products not listed are not approvable in rescue applications. Variations in tire size, transmissions, engine power and torque, duty cycle and route terrain affect application approvals. All ratios are not necessarily approvable for the Gross Axle Weight (GAW) and Gross Combination Weight (GCW) limits listed. For information about other Meritor components, contact your Meritor representative or call OnTrac Customer Service Center at 866-OnTrac1 (668-7221). You can also access this and other Meritor publications by visiting Literature on Demand at meritorhvs.com.

NOTE: The term Tandem Split refers to when there is a difference between the Forward axle and Rear axle of the Tandem or Tridem axle set when the Tandem or Tridem axle set part number is used. The value to the left of the / references the Forward axle, and the number to the right of the / references the Rear axle. For information related to the Middle axle of a Tridem axle set part number, refer to the Bills of Material.
