The GAWR for the front axel is 7000. For the rear it is 13,500.

Are those figures strictly for a "dry" chassis? For example, before gas and propane are added, etc.?

Thanks!!

That is the maximum weight each axle is designed to hold, period. It does not matter whether it is the weight of fuel, food, people, or the walls of the house.
In other words, if you have either the front or the axle weighed, it should not exceed the maximum axle weights. If you want to carry more baggage, you may not be able to run with full fuel or you may have to shift your load to put more weight on another axle.


That, I should have known. And again you keep me heading in the right direction...Thanks!!
