Steering weight.
Where do you see 12,000 on steering? 6 wheelers regularly have 16,000 here. Ready mix used to do 18 18 18 (wide rear tandems count as two singles) 12 (boost-a-load trailer). Just asking. Sammy D III (talk) 16:08, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

12,000 is standard in the industry for 18-wheelers (I am assuming this is what "Class 8" means since 80,000 was listed as the gross). It is natural to set the axle limits to sum to the gross limit, which is indeed the case: 12,000 + 34,000 + 34,000 = 80,000. Never having driven them commercially, I am unfamiliar with the limits for 6-wheelers, but my guess is the axle limits would sum to the gross limit for them too (which would help explain 16,000 for the steering axle).


 * Sorry, I didn't realize you answered here too. I just posted this on my page:
 * Thank you for answering so quick. I was looking a while ago and couldn't find any federal law putting a 12,000 limit. My state doesn't. I know it works that way on semis, but probably not on large strait trucks.
 * I was driving before the fed regulations, it was 18,000 per axle (now 20,000), 32,000 on tandem (now 34,000), and 73,280 (now 80,000) GCW. On 6x4 dump trucks 16,000 + 32,000 ± was most common (47,500 worth of wheelbase on bridge formula), but some long wheelbase trucks had 18,000 + 32,000 = 50,000.
 * The classes don't work that way, Class 8 is over 33,000, basically anything with more than 2 axles. I don't know why they have so many small classes.
 * Thank you for talking. Have a nice day.Sammy D III (talk) 22:46, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
