    Peterbilt employee at the plant in Denton, TX here. These trucks look a lot like the Hyliion trucks that we’ve built. They were powered by a Cummins X15 with CNG as well as having electric drive axles as you guys already saw. They were experimenting with this combination but the technicians we had at the plant were sent an email on a Thursday saying they were having an extended weekend and never came back. Company went under and laid everyone off. I’m willing to bet these trucks were part of that fleet. If you can provide the last 8 of the VIN I can check our systems if you have any interests.

    The FlowBelow drive axle fairing kit is for trucks that pull aero van or reefer trailers. Combo'ed with chasis fairings on the tractor, wheel covers, and trailer skirts they let you squeeze a couple more % points out of your fuel economy. Easy for bad drivers to tear them up though, especially the ones attached to the mudflap hanger.

    Edison Motors has a rare use that is suited to electric power. They haul trees downhill off a mountain then drive back up empty. Regenerative braking charges the batteries on the way down, supplying enough power to go back up unloaded. Electric trucks might be useful in a warehouse yard truck or a terminal to terminal situation. Electric forklifts work well if there is enough downtime to charge them or there are batteries to swap. Forklifts are used mainly on level surfaces. If they are used to carry things up ramps, the batteries run out of power quicker.

    If you put the directly motor with a differential then when the axle hits a pothole or any bump the shock will affect the load and bearings of the motor as well. The motors on the wheels avoiding suspension and shock damper are not too friendly though. It is the locomotive traction motor system.

    If I remember correctly Edison Motors contacted Maritor about E-Ales, but they refused to sell to Edison. The Edison E-Axle is beefier and more powerful than the Maritor axle is. But you might want to reach out because I can see some other applications where the smaller axles would still work. The only problem is Edison doesn’t have a lot of capital right now as they are still growing. It just surprises me on the waste that big companies have, since they were sold as parts and with only 20k on them.

    On those rear end hubs, with all the BOLTS sticking out, those are 'Planetary Gears' for the Central Electric Motor'(A youtube video explained those hubs to me) that is in the place in the Center of the Axle. This Electric Motor is connected to a Read Differencial for some 'WEIRD' reason I do not understand, as it adds to drag and robs power. Theres a better design that directly feeds the Electrical Motor power to each axle hub. (no wonder why the axles are scrap). Motor and planetary gears should be worth $ ... as for the axles?

    The frames are garbage striped of all the battery’s, chillers and radiators. There’s 80 plus holes on each frame rail 11/16 diameter.
    To use those electric axles, you will need inverters, a dc/dc controller, motor controllers, lots of batteries, chillers to cool the batteries and radiators to get rid of the heat.
