Sterling L-Line - Snowplow |
The new Set-Forward L-Line is the ideal configuration for government and municipal snowplow applications.
A longer wheel base translates into better weight distribution, increased under-cab room to accommodate EPA'07 exhaust filters, fuel tanks, battery boxers, outriggers and underbody scrapers.
The new DCPD (Meton) hood is stronger, lighter, and more flexible -- providing valuable weight savings.
The aerodynamically sloped hood also provides better forward visibility: 20.3' on the 101" BBC and 22.3' on the 111" BBC -- a 12% improvement.
The Set-Forward L-Line is tough, dependable, reliable and ready for work. |
| Cab Configurations |
 101-inch - offering a short overall length and a set-forward front axle to help stretch the wheelbase where bridge laws govern permissible loads. |
 111-inch - featuring a front axle just 29 inches from the bumper and the longest wheelbase available in the L-Line for any given body length. Helps maximize bridge formula loading. Puts more engine ahead of the cowl for convenient serviceability. |
