So what's the skinny? Does the 36" + 10 feet and 48" + 9 feet measuring rule for kingpin to front still apply?

In other words: How do I find the 41 foot mark on a 53 foot trailer? I was referencing a thread from back in 2009.

Start at wherever the trailer kingpin is and measure back 41 feet and make some sort of mark. Works every time.
Then make yourself aware that some states use the middle of the axle group, and some use the center of the rear-most axle. And California for instance, the key words are 40 and rear-most axleLast edited: May 28, 2017

Start at the back of the trailer, measure 9 feet toward the front and mark it. That's your 41'.

Furthermore, the mark must be approved by the appropriate CMV Enforcement division of the states where highway operations will be conducted.Last edited: May 28, 2017
