ABSTRACT:
A tag axle which is pivotally mounted to the rear of a vehicle for selectively providing additional flotation for the vehicle. The tag axle includes first and second suspension arm mounts secured to the rearward ends of the frame members of the vehicle. First and second suspension arms are pivotally secured to the first and second mounts whereby the ground-engaging wheels at the rear of the tag axle may be pivotally moved between raised and lowered positions. The pivot connection between the suspension arms and the mounts enables the suspension arms to be pivotally secured thereto, regardless of the width of the frame members of the vehicle and regardless of the distance between the frame members.
