Print Product Brochure |
Vulcan has added an entirely new dimension to the
concept of transport, thanks to its 12 and 16 Series
LCG™ (Low Center of Gravity) carriers . Their
patent-pending design lowers the deck height by as much
as five to six inches over that of conventional
carriers. The result is better stability during
transport, the abiltiy to haul taller loads and
increased operator safety because the operator can
easily secure the load while standing safely on the
ground. Finally, the LCG™'s innovative design includes
a load angle that's as low as a 11 degrees when mounted
on most air-ride chassis with the air dumped or 7 1/2
degrees with the SST™ option. Your new 16 Series LCG™
is available in deck lengths from 21' to 26' with a
capacity of 16,000 lbs. and a wide variety of options to
fit your specific transport needs.

● Chassis components
directly behind the cab must be 2" below the top of the
truck frame. |
● ‡ The
outside frame rails of the chassis extending behind the
cab must be free of fuel tanks, air tanks, exhaust
stacks, etc. |
● The LCG™ carrier is
not compatible with chassis that have inboard mid-ship
fuel tanks such as the Ford 550 and Dodge 5500. Fuel
tanks must be under the cab. Fuel tanks can extend up
to six inches behind the cab only in combination with a
frame-mounted pylon. Fuel fill must not be behind the
cab. |
● The preferred
location for the battery box is under the passenger seat
or under the cab, battery boxes in other locations may
require relocation. |
● Air-bag rear
suspensions are recommended for the lowest possible load
angle but the LCG™ carrier can be mounted on some
chassis with leaf spring suspensions. The top of the
truck frame must not be more than 3 3/4 inches below the
top of the tires with the airbag suspension deflated.
Chassis that do not employ helper spring pads as
International 4300 and Ford F650 have no installation
issues. Chassis such as Hino will need the helper
spring pads lowered. |
● In-Line horizontal
exhaust systems on some chassis with 2010 emissions that
require DEF may interfere with inboard tilt cylinders
and an alternate exhaust configuration should be
selected. |
● A minimum clearance
of 49" between the inside of the rear tires is required.

NOTE: All ratings are
based on structural factors only, not vehicle capacities
or capabilities. Specifications shown are
approximations and may vary depending on chassis
selected. Platform rating is based on an equally
distributed load. Actual payload carrying capacity is
determined by the curb weight of the chassis and
equipment and should not exceed the GVWR of the
chassis. Miller Industries Towing Equipment Inc
reserves the right to change or modify product and or
specifications without notice or obligation. Some
equipment shown is optional. |
