My '31 weighed in at 5150 in the front and 8500 in the rear. Full water, 2/3 gas, 1/3 holding. Each axle is rated at 5K lbs. Yes front is overloaded, but what...
Marcus how did you get the mid axel weight? I was hoping later to catch one of the guys on the jump scales in between messing with the trucks and get them to...
Ah just wondering seems like GMC's (I am on the GMC list too got a thing about toronado driven things)Always have several listed. I must admit to a prejudice...
... Thanks Dave. I'm sticking to Denmans for now :-) They're working fine. Besides, that rear axle rating is no accident. I posted ad nauseum about this when I...
Dave: How can your rig weigh 400# more in the front than mine and 870 less total? I can't see how 870 pounds behind the forward rear axle pushes the nose up...
I weighed the front, and rears as a set. then I weighed the rear only with mid and front as a set. math got me the weight of the mid axle by subtracting the...
I'd love to hear more about those "center caps" when you get a chance, Greg. Matt gave us a set of probably-priginal hub caps, can't decide if I want to use...
I'm guessing you just had more weight in the rear. Most of it being over the axles, but obviously enough was behind the rear to lift the front. I don't know...
I may be the State Trooper that weighed my 1982 33 footer. I work commercial vehicles and have 8 individual scales. I weighed it with water and all they...
... I'm working on them. I don't know how many people will want them or can even use them. They're going to be carved out of solid billet aluminum which means...
For anybody in the Southern California area, the "U-Pick-Parts" (not Pick Your Part) junkyard in Sun Valley, Ca has two 77 Eldorados in the yard. Both of them...

Dave: I pack my spare alt, starter, gear box, head lights, etc in the left rearmost locker, where the electrical cord is. I pack my jacks and tools in the...
Comprendo, Greg - when you get around to it, no problema - but will continue to be very interested - good luck with ALL the projects - Erin I'm working on...
Dave: You answered my question! I was going to go back and ask Tom what each wheel weighed to see what the generator does to the left side. I am puzzled by the...
Thanks for the info, Greg...we've recently (last few years) replaced most of that....sigh. Erin [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
... Yeah Erin, it's not of any use to people looking for as-is items. It's probably for someone who wants to have spare spindles, half-shafts or upper control...
We discused this at the time and could never reason why. Its as if the axle is twisting. Something I just thought of. If the rear had gas presurised shocks...
Marty kind of steered away from the idea and basically said go back to spec. The context of his statements were primarily getting the whole coach level, so I...
