Yes indeed and their rear supports are heavy castings with springs that anchor outside the frame rather than inside as on a passenger car. The shocks and everything else are huge too to handle the weight. Note in one of the photos above that the brake drum has an outside diameter that is nearly the same size as the 16" wheel because it's 14" drum that is very thick.
