Rear-End Heavy: A Hill Climb Gone Wrong 🎢🛑

They say "slow and steady wins the race," but sometimes "heavy and steep" just wins the battle against gravity. 🚛⚖️

In this footage, we see a day-cab vocational truck attempting to pull a heavy load up a gravel incline. Unfortunately, the combination of the steep grade and the massive weight behind the rear axles shifted the center of gravity just a bit too far back. The result? A literal front-end elevation.

While it makes for a wild video, this is a quick way to stress the frame, damage the suspension, or end up with a very expensive repair bill once those front tires finally decide to come back to earth. 🌍🛠️

Question: Have you ever felt the front end get "light" on a steep grade, or do you always keep enough weight on the steer? 👇
