Non Steerable Lift Axle

I don't know of mandatory steerable lift axle law? My 2016 has 20000lb non steer on it.

 

Who says it had to be a steerable?

 

Be curious to see this “law” in print.

 

Look at his profile: it's a NY state law.
OP: I am not super familiar with those laws regarding exemptions, I'll call a friend and have you a answer shortly.
You're wanting to know about upstate permits only? Or upstate and downstate?

 

Alright he only had specific info for divisible load overweight permits: any power unit pre 2005 build date can utilize steerable or non steerable lift axles until 2020.
2006 and later power units must have steerable for any lift axle.
After 2020 any lift on any unit must be steerable.
Now this is all divisible load permits under the Infrastructure Friendly Act.
Look on the NYS dot website or call the permit office and ask.

 

Good to know but man do some people need to learn to put all the info into their posts so we know what questions they are asking. Cause if I had known they was asking about a new york law I wouldn't have made my comment. Oh well.

I would’ve kept my mouth shut. Lol. Out here (Midwest to Northwest) you can run what you want.
