    And that's definitely not a 20k front axle either.

    What's the most u loaded on 13 or 14k front axle.

    Never said it was, it’s a 14,200# front end on the 05 a 12,000# on the 2000. I’ve had 15,000 up there that I can verify. Probably more while making onsites.

    I wasnt saying you did.

    I just noticed. I'm just learning the game man. This heavy haul , trucking in general, has so many blurred lines.

    Who would think you could run 750,000 miles on a 38k rear and 14k front with a 110k D10 and a 2+2+2.

    You woulda likely had 55 on the drives and 15 on the steers in that picture.

    That was an early picture from that day, we were tearing it down. Grossing right at 120,000. 46 and change in the drives.

    The blurred lines drive me nuts. That and all the rules that change state to state and even worse city to city.

    City rules only apply on city streets except curfews. As long as you’re on a state route state rules apply. At least where I’ve been.

    ..There’s a place I can think of that includes every street, bridge and highway in their curfews. Only one I know about personally tho.
