Koni FSD Shocks

[Dan]

Right, you asked Brady how much he had to spare. When he said the axle would
carry 25K by engineer estimate it left out the fact that legal limit was less,
but you already knew that. I didn't know the interstate limit was 20K and that
is useful information.

Actually, federal law on interstates. 20,000 for single, 34,000 for tandem.
Probably a reason the Prevost shifts weight to the steer.

A lot of big bus/motorhomes are lucky they don't have to cross the scales. My
drivers have a GAWR of 23,000, with actual weight of 19,300 when weighed with
about a half-tank of fuel; I figure another 900 there, and we just added a
Washer/Dryer over the drivers so I'm likely near 20,500 fully loaded.

Tickets normally start (for commercial rigs) at 5% over the limit.
