I've watched Strong Arm's video. They claim some enormous weight for a straight truck. I believe the way they make it work is a combination of the "bridge" (steering axle to Strong Arm lift axle) and overall number of axles. Those intermediate axles probably don't carry much weight. They are just there to be counted (the real weight is on the steer and drive axles). I think where this falls apart is in states (like my beloved New Mexico) where they actually look at axle spacing and axle groups. I haven't seen any in New Mexico, but I saw a lot of them in eastern Arizona when I was out there last year. I must admit however, that I have been out of the game for quite a while and things have changed.I have noticed just in the last couple years all the big guys and quite a few little guys are running the 7 axle super dumps, and in the last month I would bet that every week there are another couple dozen brand new ones running around
