AXLES:
The Chevy Kodiak has a set-back axle and a wheelcut of up to 54 degrees –
allowing the C4500/C5500 regular cab to turn a full circle in as little as
36.8 feet. The result? A best-in-class turning diameter within class 4 and
superb maneuverability.*
REAR AXLES:
Available with limited slip differential for added traction. Axle ratios
available with select engine/transmission combinations.
11,000 lb (C4500) 4:30/4:63/4:88/5:13
13,500 lb (C4500/C5500) 4:44/4:78/5:13
Traction control using ABS available with all models.
SUSPENSIONS:
Chevy Kodiak's range of suspensions is designed to match the size and type
of load you carry. Multileaf springs designed to help stabilize loads with
high centers of gravity are available. You can also select a strong
parabolic suspension that stiffens progressively as its load increases,
resulting in a more consistent ride whether the Chevy Kodiak is empty or
loaded. |
