Federal regs now allow 24k on rear axle of mh and transit bus. Technically you cant go farther than a mile from the interstate. My mh is 21,300 on rear axle before i hook a trlr to it. In a year of travels as far east as East Texas and as far north As Fairbanks Ak, not once have i been stopped or questioned. This Ca link referances the 24k for mh.

That is a new one to me. With that said, there are a few variants to basic what you can and can not do. Tank truck and trailers are allowed a few lbs more than std, at least locally meaning Wa st.
As you also note. You.are not supposed to go more than a mile fr freeway. These types of you can, but really.can not rules are around. Like triples are not allowed in Wa st, but you can bring into Wa stat x miles to remove third trailer at reasonably closest stop, warehouse etc. Iirc <5 miles.....
Unfortunately, most info is still being related on a.commercial basis example......BUT, with this in mind, as wadcutter noted, I have to in the past, weight laws protect the road. That is the engineer spec you must follow, and get enforced on, not the.engineer that designs and specs your vehicle. Follow and think how these examples may effect you, in most cases not, you.realize, you have no.worries from an over weight.perspective.
