12 cu. yard mixer trucks

(OP)
I’m looking for some dimensions on 12 cu. Yard concrete mixer trucks.  Rear charge.  I’m particularly interested in the charging hopper and the wheel / tire locations.  Does anyone know of a company that will provide this information?  

RE: 12 cu. yard mixer trucks

In Australia, our typical transit mixers have capacities of 6- and 8-m3.

For a typical 6-m3 transit mixer:
- Front axle load is 6000kg
- Rear axles’ load is 16,500kg
- Wheel base is 4400mm
- Overall width across tyres is 2500m

For a typical 8-m3 transit mixer:
- Front axles’ load is 11,000kg
- Rear axles’ load is 16,500kg
- Wheel base is 4740mm
- Overall width across tyres is 2600m

See http://www.cesco-forbes.com/index.html which has some specification sheets for a variety of trucks
