The door jam says 2850 pounds what does that mean?

it means that the weight of the car on the front axle is 2,850 lbs. one ton is 2000 lbs. so just the front of the vehicle weighs approx. 1 3/8 tons. this is the GAWR FRONT. Gross Axle Weight Rating only for the front ov the vehicle. there is also a GAWR REAR. Gross Axle Weight Rating only for the rear of the vehicle. GAWR Front 2850 lbs. GAWR Rear 2850 lbs. add these together and the total weight is 5,700 lbs unloaded, with cargo or people ect. so the tonage equals approx. 2 7/8 tons. when toeing a vehicle or loading one its better to err on the side of safety. so figure 3 to 3 1/2 tons or 6,500 lbs. weight rating. remember to always have a certified person double check your weights two heads are better than one.
