    Got a 2008 flatbed with 25K axles. Anyone know what the gauge limit is for 40,000 pounds. Thinking its like 70-72 or something like that. Anyone know for sure. TIA upload_2020-5-4_18-41-27.png upload_2020-5-4_18-41-27.jpeg

    I could scale about 64psi on the spread bags, i know 70 psi was over.

    45psi was getting heavy on the drives
