The front actually surprised me. If I’m reading it correctly the c60 frame is narrower than the k10 frames.

That makes sense because the medium truck frames are straight ladders front to rear, and the rear has to be narrow enough to fit between big dual tires and massive springs on both sides.
I wrangled my stock C-50 into and out of some pretty rough places in the woods to load logs. I did get stuck in a couple soft spots but I'm not sure a front drive axle would have helped any when you get that much weight buried.
