    Steer axe has been operated to 365,s Series 60, single salon slide,

    Tare weight with tank of fuel an 100 gal of water plus living item including wife’s shoes is 53,800 lbs

    Front axle is 18700 lbs. Drive an tag is 35,120 lbs.

    Any info would be great, thanks in advance.

    No idea what the coach weight rating is i.e. axles, brakes, suspension someone else will chime in.

    If running Michelin tires this link will show the tire pressures needed based on axle weights

    Front axle might be a bit overloaded. Best to have weight from each axle by parking bus on the 3 different platforms on a Cat Scale

    Larry:

    Do you have a 45′ or 40′ coach?

    Where is your generator?

    You should be able to get an accurate weight of each axle at the CAT scale. We’re kinda like a semi tractor. IIRC when I weighted years ago I was able to drive straight on and weigh the coach, just like I would with a tractor. But IIRC the driver’s window didn’t line up with the speaker and the buttons … but it was a long time ago.

    The Prevost placard on our coach is next to the driver’s seat and IIRC (coach in Tennessee) the individual axle limits are listed, I think.

    I hope this helps and doesn’t mislead you.

    Dick, thank you for the response. The serial number is located left on the driver’s seat, that it.

    It is a 45 foot, jenny is located in front of the drive axle on the driver’s side.

    Have weighed a couple of times at different scales with basic the same results. I am not carrying any items that is extremely heavy in the front two bays.

    Probably my best source of info would be to contact Prevost directly.
