4in spacing = 250 a hole 6in spacing = 400 a hole 5th wheel slide =500 a hole If your trailer has no kingpin length marks, grab a measureing tape and measure 10ft from rear of trailer, that will give you the California 40 and 9ft is the 41. Also always scale with at least half a tank or greater. If you need to fill up. Diesel weights about 8lb a gallon. Keep in mind those numbers as you will get a ticked if your caught at a scale.

That's what you're learning in CDL School... also the California Kingpin setting your tandems need to be 40 ft from the Kingpin!

I was taught that each tandem hole was only 200 lbs... what is correct?
@sille2160 Жыл бұрын
It depends on the company and their trailers honestly my company each hole is 250

Never heard of 200's. Typically dry van and refers either have 250 or 500lb a hole trailers. Some trucks have a psi gauge for the drive axel. While not 100% accurate it gets you close to legal at the shipper. Always use a cat scale to double check.
