Overloading
The load carrying components (axle, springs, tires,
wheels, etc.) of you r vehicle will provid e satisfactory
service as long as you do not exceed the GVWR and front
and rear GAWR.
Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
The GVWR is the total allow able weight of you r vehicle.
This inclu des driver, passengers, and cargo. The total
load must be limited so that you do not exceed the
GVWR.
The best way to figure out the total weight of you r
vehicle is to weigh it when it is fully load ed and read y for
operation. Weigh it on a commercial scale to insu re that it
is not over the GVWR.
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
Figure out the weight on the front and rear of the vehicle
separately. It is important that you distribu te the load
evenly over the front and rear axles.
The GAWR is the maxim um capacity of the front and rear
axles. Distribu te the load over the front and rear axles
evenly. Make sure that you do not exceed either front or
rear GAWR.
Overload ing can cause potential safety hazard s and
shorten useful service life. Heavier axles or suspension
components do not necessarily increase the vehicle’s
GVWR.
WARN ING!
Becau se the fron t wheels steer the veh icle, it is
importan t that you do not exceed the maxim um fron t
or rear GAWR. A dangerou s drivin g condition can
resu lt if eith er ratin g is exceed ed. You could lose
control of the veh icle and have an accid ent.
