By using a formed axle tube to achieve clearance around the prop shaft, these load-
supporting axles can be optimally positioned in front of the drive axle to achieve a short
wheelbase. Different design components allow JOST pusher axles to be individually adapted
to each application. Adapt your mid-lift axle by using suitable lift systems. For the design
of vehicles of high manoeuvrability, e.g. disposal vehicles in urban transport, JOST pusher
axles are also available with steering capabilities.
