I am looking at getting a Grey Wolf 26BH
GVWR W/brakes 7402
Cargo Capacity 2823
Do I add those 2 together ?
the way they break down, in this catalog, confuses me.
axle weight, ship weight, unloaded vehicle weight and dry hitch weight..
UVW + CCC = GVWR
so 7402-2823 = 4579 uvw/dry
Axles have weight rating too, don't NEED to look at that just yet.
As for the tow vehicle, without more info, not sure if you will/might exceed your vehicle's capacity, or possibly damage transmission, etc. Lots of if's/maybes
