RE: 41',43' LXi Gross Axle Weight Ratings
Ron,
As suggested, when you are snowbirding this year, maybe parliament will have your info. If not, another idea is to pull the serial number off the axle and call the manufacturer and see if they can tell you what it shipped to bluebird with.....FWIW 14600-16000 is only 1400lbs total or 700 per side so if I was a betting man and willing to take a SWAG, I'd say beefier tie rod ends, thicker tie rods, 9 inch rims, 315's, etc..... with the ball joints, bearings, etc being the same. I bet the manufacturer can at least tell you that much I.E. the differences between 14.6 and 16...... good luck and please post the results when you find out for the benefit of others. FWIW at 14.6 I am running 8.25's and 12r's like your old 95 with the rims being the component in the entire assembly with the lowest number........... and when these things are assembled, the component in the assembly with the "lowest rating" usually sets the "total" rating for the ENTIRE assembly........... when in doubt, set the bird up for the lower number and you can never go wrong until you can verify...........
