    Scale ticket says i have 14500 on my rear axle. Rear axle holds 21k. Truck gvwr minus tag is 33k . So i can only haul 6500lbs? (without tag?)

    Your posts just get more nonsensical. based on your questions you must be new to rv hauling. Perhaps i can teach you about the industry as you seem to have no clue.

    *ignored user, as i have no time for petty squabbles. Movn on...

    I understand double frame, I just have a hard time believing it weighs 8,000 more than my trucks, which were Freightliner M2 Ext cab with 28' deck and 15' lift deck?

    Yup, I had to ask him in his other thread what truck it was going on. Kind of wrong truck for the application but to each his own and just try to help where I can. Depending in how the frame is setup Id be inclined to slide the axles back.

    oh ya it is... we are getting very creative on the build. LOT of extensions on it. Just didnt want to lose the 2 tires on the tag.
