On my trucks I usually had it just over the rear of the front drive tire.

Are you weighing on a 3-platform scale where your rig is level from steer axle to trailer axles? brakes released and foot off brake pedal? What exactly is steer weight and what exactly is drives weight? what is your fuel status?
Trying to get accurate axle weights on a small platform scale that is higher or lower than the approach or departure apron is next to impossible -

In your first post you said you had 9,000lbs-9,900lbs on your steers. Which is it? Good luck being an O/O.

If it's far back behind the center of the drive axles, this creates a safety concern as weigh is removed from steer axle as you put more weight on the drives. This is never a good thing.Farmerbob1 Thanks this. -
