Makes sense, I guess that's why most conversions start with a twin; lighter axles individually, than the axle on a stock single. They end up with a single that rides softer than the stock single, but with added expense of the removal, etc. I recall the "double whammy" when hitting a chuckhole or bump with the twins I used to drive. When that second axle hit, it would jar your teeth. Again, fleet equipment, comfort wasn't high on the list of spec's. Is my desire for a "simple" towing rig unique? I know some states require extensive conversion to gain RV status, but again, I haven't located the requirements in Indiana. IDOT won't reply to the written request, guess I'll have to pester someone at the license branch. I suppose a used twin screw would be easier to locate due to the low percentage of OTR rigs being single axle. More on the market should translate to a little better price, I would think. Thanks again for any comments relevent to this.
