on the front. However, the front GAWR, rear
GAWR, and Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) must never be exceeded.
Warning
On some vehicles that have certain front
mounted equipment, such as a snow
plow, it may be possible to load the front
axle to the front Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) but not have enough
weight on the rear axle to have proper
braking performance. If the brakes cannot
work properly, the vehice could crash.
Always follow the snow plow
manufacturer or installer's
recommendation for rear ballast to
ensure a proper front and rear weight
distribution ratio. Maintaining a proper
front and rear weight distribution ratio is
necessary to provide proper braking
performance.
See your dealer for additional advice and
information about using a snow plow on the
vehicle. Also, see Vehicle Load Limits 0 204.

Pickup Conversion to Chassis Cab

We are aware that some vehicle owners
might consider having the pickup box
removed and a commercial or recreational
body installed. Owners should be aware
that, as manufactured, there are differences
between a chassis cab and a pickup with the
box removed which could affect vehicle
safety. The components necessary to adapt
a pickup to permit its safe use with a
specialized body should be installed by the
body builder.
