    Don't know about the length issue, but you need doubles and triples on your drivers license.

    It's the rear drive to jeep axle measurement that is needed, however, I'm pretty sure the answer is No to any single jeep in CA.
    Call the permit office and ask, but be prepared as they will require all axle spacings and may request you submit a drawing. Don't BS on it as if you require "certification", they will send an inspector out to verify compliance.

    If I remember right, CA will not permit a single axle for extra legal weight in combination with other axle groups that are extra legal. However, they do permit (or used to) a single axle on a mechanical booster. Go figure. Maybe one of the Oregonions or @nate980 with a single axle jeep would know?

    She has never been asked this request, or inspected this combination 3+1+2+1mdu , she's checking with the higher ups.
