VEHICLE LOADING

Certification Label

As required by National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration regulations, your vehicle has a
certification label affixed to the driver's side door
or pillar.
This label contains the month and year of manu-
facture, Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR),
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) front and
rear, and Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). A
Month-Day-Hour (MDH) number is included on
this label and indicates the Month, Day and
Hour of manufacture. The bar code that appears
on the bottom of the label is your VIN.
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR)
The GVWR is the total permissible weight of
your vehicle including driver, passengers, ve-
hicle, options and cargo. The label also specifies
maximum capacities of front and rear axle sys-
tems (GAWR). Total load must be limited so
GVWR and front and rear GAWR are not ex-
ceeded.
Payload
The payload of a vehicle is defined as the
allowable load weight a truck can carry, includ-
ing the weight of the driver, all passengers,
options and cargo.
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR)
The GAWR is the maximum permissible load on
the front and rear axles. The load must be
distributed in the cargo area so that the GAWR
of each axle is not exceeded.
Each axle GAWR is determined by the compo-
nents in the system with the lowest load carrying
capacity (axle, springs, tires or wheels). Heavier
axles or suspension components sometimes
specified by purchasers for increased durability
does not necessarily increase the vehicle's
GVWR.
Tire Size
The tire size on the Vehicle Certification Label
represents the actual tire size on your vehicle.
Replacement tires must be equal to the load
capacity of this tire size.
Rim Size
This is the rim size that is appropriate for the tire
size listed.
Inflation Pressure
This is the cold tire inflation pressure for your
vehicle for all loading conditions up to full
GAWR.
