    I don’t know, must have gotten caught. Wishing I wound have ran around it. Honestly didn’t think I was over. We reworked it and hopefully got it right. Soon find out. Looks of my guage. It’ll be good, with axle slid all the way forward. That’s the goal. Little bit lighter in the nose. Will have room to slide if needed.

    Well, at 44k, you shouldn't have been over, just loaded poorly.
    Here's my deal, if I have 44k in the box, and my tandems are all the way up, and my gage reads 60, I'm good.
    If I'm 44k, and my tandems are at 41, and my gage reads 30 or 40, I'm way over on the rear.
    It just takes time to understand what it's trying to tell you.
    The good people of Florida, visa-v the fine law enforcement folks taught me that the hard way.

    I get it. My air guage at 55 lbs. is 34k. It was at 50, but Load weighed 44.400 not 38900 like the bills say. I had them load it the way I wanted. Had to slide it back 1 hole. Now it’s at 40.5” kingpin to axle set centers.
