Have you ever seen a dump truck or concrete mixer with a full set of wheels floating above the road and thought something was broken? It’s not a glitch—and it’s not spare tires. That “ghost wheel” is a lift axle (often a pusher axle or tag axle), designed to help trucks adapt in real time.
In this video, you’ll learn how extra axles spread weight per axle to protect asphalt and concrete, why drivers lift them back up to cut rolling resistance (fuel savings), how toll roads can charge based on axles in contact, and why lifting an axle improves maneuverability by reducing effective wheelbase. We’ll also show what happens during tight turns when too many wheels stay planted—scrubbing that destroys tires and strains the chassis.
