Overweight on Drives

I had a old timer show me one time to alternate chains and binders in the rack, then hook the bottom of the chain into the bottom hook of the binder... solves the problem of binder hook unscrewing and never lose the end of your chain inside the bottom of headache rack hell

 

Since you're near the limit on your drives and steers and under on your tandems, you have a few options for how to shift some weight to the tandems: raise your fifth wheel, put shorter tires on the trailer, or put taller tires on your drives.

 

How much room do you have in front of your fuel tanks? Getting them farther ahead would get weight off your drives.

 

Scratch that, just saw in your post that you’re already 12.9 on the steer axle.

 

Steer axle should have a label, this determines weight limit.
Also weight limit is determined by the legal weight the tires can handle.

 

^^^^ same as above ^^^^

Label will be inside driver side door.

Steer legal weight will be what axle/tires are rated at & what particular state allows. I'm rated for 14,600, but it's also a custom spec truck. Not a fleet truck.

See Rand McNally atlas front section for state regs.
