A vacuum tank semi-trailer having a horizontal tank with front and rear tank heads. A front cantilevered frame is welded to the front tank head and has a fifth wheel hitch and a pair of landing legs fixed thereto. A rear cantilevered frame is welded to the rear tank head, and has an axle assembly sprung therefrom. A lower center of gravity is realized by keeping the front a rear frames smaller than the diameter of the tank.
