Thinking of purchasing a Fuzion 371. Question, 371 has two axles, each rated at 7000lbs. Total weight of 371 (13140 shipping and 3360 cargo) is 16000lbs. Question is how does the axle ratings support this weight? Thanks BobbyDale
Actually it's 16500# GVWR. When you deduct the manufacturer's published hitch weight of 3015# you end up with a possible 13485# on the axles. The certification label will show those 7000# axles as being derated to 6750# each.
