In Reply to: Double Truck Frames posted by showcrop on July 24, 2017 at 16:50:44:
I've heard a couple of different things in the past about the reason for double frames. Besides when making repairs, it seems as though there was a time when manufacturers would use a double frame for a heavier-duty truck - like, a SA tractor might have a single frame, but a heavy haul rig would have the same frame doubled for extra strength.
