Chassis
Chassis Highlights

C4500 and C5500 have a progressive spring aid that provides an additional 76 mm (3 in.) of compression for a smoother ride. They also have six-bolt web-mounted cross-member fasteners for impressive rigidity, and an anti-roll stabilizer bar (standard in the front and available in the rear).

C6500, C7500 and C8500 have straight flat rails with an industry-standard width of 864 mm (34 in.) to facilitate body and equipment installation. All frames can be equipped with an inverted “L” reinforcement for greater strength.

C6500 has an available LoPro chassis modification package that employs a notched 80,000 PSI frame to lower the chassis almost 76 mm (3 in.) for easier loading.

Advice
 
Topkick C4500/C5500 - Choosing the Right Engine
The new Topkick C4500/C5500 fills a need at the lighter end of the medium-duty range. They make an excellent choice for a wide variety of jobs, from light construction or delivery to landscaping. The model lineup includes regular or crew cab models, plus cutaways for ambulance, fire and rescue, shuttle bus and school bus applications.

Topkick C4500/C5500 is one of only a few medium-duty trucks to offer a gasoline engine. The Vortec 8100 V8 produces the advantages of lower initial cost and lower curb weight for increased payloads. Gasoline engines are easier to start, quieter and more familiar to most operators, an important factor in the rental business.

In high mileage applications, the fuel efficiency and long engine life of a Duramax V8 diesel will justify its extra cost. Diesel engines are especially fuel efficient at slow speed and idle, so if you operate a city delivery service resulting in a significant annual fuel bill, diesel power should be the choice.

Topkick C6500/C7500 and C8500 – The Automatic Advantage
The C6500/C7500 and C8500 Topkicks are the heavy haulers in the GMC lineup of professional grade trucks. The C8500 Tandems offer GVWR’s up to 27,660 kg (61,000 lb.) – well into class 8 range.

Allison automatic transmissions are standard in Topkicks. This is an important benefit for less experienced drivers and a convenience for all. Allison automatics help maintain engine speeds that provide the best combination of power and economy while avoiding engine damaging “lugging”. The transmission’s torque converter cushions the engine’s power output and prevents the shock loading that can shorten the drivetrain component life. An automatic transmission temperature gauge is a low cost alert that can help prevent a transmission failure due to overheating in a heavy-duty stop and go operation.
