Matthew,

The GMC 550 is rated at 26,000 GVW and 50,000 GVCW. All Task Force 550's had single head lights. To the best of my knowledge they had the 370 gas engines with either a 5-speed or Allison automatic trans. The 10 stud wheels were an option as was Air Brakes. My info doesn't show tandem axles as being an option, someone else will need to weigh in on that...are you sure it wasn't a Tag Axle?

Hope this helps,

Mike B smile
