DRW back to SRW
Anybody changed from Dually to SRW? Why? Are you happy with your decision? What do you haul that made you want a dually? The new generation SRW trucks have payloads of 4000#+...this may be...

Do the math.
You aren’t disagreeing with me. I said the tires aren’t the limiter.
No, he’s just confused.
But in Kaytegs scenario, IF his empty rear axle weight was actually only 2800lbs (he still thinks the aluminum bed is like 700lbs lighter than a steel bed) then the limit would be suspension or possibly the frame. 7200lbs won’t stand on OE springs on any 1 ton.
