Calculate & Compare Tow Performance

Is your vehicle optimized for the unique demands of your towing operation?

Calculating tow ratings requires considering wheelbase, front and rear axle weights along with retracted and extended overhang, The math can be complex, use this calculator to truly understand how much you can tow, either with one of our trucks or your current truck, and compare ratings to make sure you’re getting the right equipment for your towing needs.

Wheelbase

Distance from centerline of the front axle to the centerline of the rear axle

Steer Axle Weight

Amount of weight applied to the front axle including the driver, fuel, and all equipment.

Drive Axle Weight

Amount of weight applied to the rear axle including all equipment.

Drive Axle Weight Rating

Weight capacity of the drive axle per the axle manufacturer.

Steer Axle Remaining Weight

Desired weight remaining on the towing vehicle’s steer axle when the load is lifted.

Overhang

Distance from centerline of the drive axle to the lift point.
