ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Heavy load-carrying vehicles such as concrete trucks occasionally require the temporary addition of extra load- carrying wheels in order to reduce load concentrations trans- mitted to highways to within allowable limits as set by statute and/or regulatory agencies in various states.

The load-carrying unit includes first and second wheel assemblies which axe movable between the retracted and load-sharing positions independently of each other, each wheel assembly including wheels mounted for rolling engagement with the highway and for rotation about an approximately vertical axis located forwardly of the wheels.
