"Innovative solutions like ROADMAAX Z with Hendrickson's exclusive patented ZMD technology deliver not only the critical weight savings, but also provide excellent ride and handling for both on- and off-highway applications."
ROADMAAX Z offers a full range of suspension scalability with rated capacities of 23,000 pounds, 46,000 pounds and 69,000 pounds.
