In addition, DAF also offers 21 and 26-tonne hub reduction tandems with the HR1670T, which can be equipped with air or leaf spring suspension and features drum brakes. This is not only ideal for heavy haulage, but also lends itself to off-road applications. An important factor for the best possible fuel economy is the availability of at least ten rear axle ratio options (from 3.46:1 to 7.21:1 - depending on the tandem). The fastest final drive ratios result in even lower engine speeds for optimum fuel efficiency. For the lowest possible operating costs, the rear axle oil drain interval of the tandems is three years or 450,000 kilometres.
