Trailer Weight Range:

Specified weight range

that the trailer must fall within that ranges from
zero to the maximum trailer weight rating.

Remember to figure in the tongue load of your
loaded trailer when figuring the total weight.

Do not exceed the GVWR or the GAWR
specified on the certification label.

Do not use replacement tires with lower load
carrying capacities than the originals because they
may lower the vehicle’s GVWR and GAWR
limitations. Replacement tires with a higher limit
than the originals do not increase the GVWR and
GAWR limitations.

The Certification Label, found on the inside pillar of
the driver’s door, lists several important vehicle
weight rating limitations. Before adding any
additional equipment, refer to these limitations. If
you are adding weight to the front of your vehicle,
(potentially including weight added to the cab), the
weight added should not exceed the front axle
reserve capacity (FARC). Additional frontal weight
may be added to the front axle reserve capacity
provided you limit your payload in other ways (i.e.
restrict the number of passengers or amount of
cargo carried).

You may add equipment throughout your vehicle if the
total weight added is equal to or less than the total
axle reserve capacity (TARC) weight. You should
NEVER exceed the total axle reserve capacity.

Always ensure that the weight of passengers, cargo
and equipment being carried is within the weight
limitations that have been established for your
vehicle including both gross vehicle weight and
Front and rear gross axle weight rating limits. Under
no circumstance should these limitations be
exceeded. Exceeding any vehicle weight rating
limitation could result in serious damage to the
vehicle and/or personal injury.
