bbigrig Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 What suspension do you have and where are you located? Certain suspensions only come with certain axle ratings. How much you can put on an axle can vary depending on your jurisdiction. As an example just because you have 46,000 rears on a truck in Canada doesn't mean you can carry up to its maximum rating. Axle spreads can also dictate maximum load per axle. Need more info. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43043-need-help-trying-to-figure-it-out-axles/#findComment-315248 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coalbucket Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Look at the Gross Axle Weight Rating on your door pillar sticker. That's figured on the lowest rating for your axles or springs or tires, as built.

bbigrig Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 You probably do have 44 rears. Take a picture of the camel back spring pack and the end of your axle shafts (hubs) and post it. That should help us answer everything by then. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/43043-need-help-trying-to-figure-it-out-axles/#findComment-315556 Share on other sites More sharing options...
