Gross Axle Weight Rating Front.
Check the driver's side door. There should be information telling you the weight. I have a 1990 Mustang Gt and they usually are heavier than the lx. My door says: GVWR: 4,230lb/ 1,918kg Front: GAWR: 2,262lb/ 1,026kg Rear: GAWR: 2,031lb/ 921kg
The answer is gormandise (British English) or gormandize (US English).The word is defined as "to eat food, often excessively or gluttonously".It is pronounced "gawr-muh n-dies" in UK English and "gawr-muh n-dahyz" in US English.
It's the hybrid form of 'grrrrr' and 'rawr', sometimes written as grawr. It's most commonly used as an exclamation of anger and frustration.
It stands for "GROSS AXLE WEIGHT RATING" It is there to inform you about the total recommended weight for the front and rear axles of your vehicle.
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. "there is little folly in many counselors."
Driver side door jam, there is a placard where it is printed. It has alot of good info there, such as VIN#, paint code, tire psi, and gvwr and gawr. Some vehicles, like trucks, have gcvwr there too.
Open the driver side door and look for the gvwr on the white sticker. That number is the maximum weight you can haul. The maximum weight the rear axle can handle is the gross axle weight rating (gawr) which is also located on this sticker.
Unless the camper exceeds the gross axle weight rating (GAWR) and maximum towing capacity ratings of your vehicle, you should require no modifications at all. Check your owner's manual for these ratings.
What model and configuration? You could be talking about anything from a single axle to a centipede or superdump. Typical GAWR for a tandem truck is 50,000 - 54,000 lbs... it depends on wheelbase, type of road it's on, bridge law formula, etc.
