Actually on the rig in your siggy 18,000 is all you are allowed per axle on your drives without a permit. Now if you was to go to a single drive then yes 20,000. Your front is good for only 12,000 without a permit and then 16,000 unless you put floats on.;)
For the benefit of us non-technical folks who don't know the specs of various vehicles, could you please explain how you came up with the numbers? Start with being more specific about the rig you're referring to, I see several in that signature that you could be speaking about.
And what do you mean by "floats"?
The rig I was referring to is the Freightliner. If he were to be weighed as a commercial vehicle. Floats are the big wide tires that you see on the front of a lot of dump trucks and heavy haul semis. If this picture works, these are "floats" "super singles"
