Just to compare my RCSB 2WD. !/4 tank (6 gal) fuel, decked drawers and tools, spare and jack, personal stuff in cab.


If I strain my memory I was outside the truck on the intercom to the scale-master.
When I still worked I often used a RR scale. I worked with the WI scale inspectors to maintain the certification. Offten could compare with Cat scales. Cat scales always were on the higher weight side compared to our certified commercial use scale. KM

New drivers side temp actuator. $30 and it's good to go! Kept hitting the actuator with a flashlight I keep in the truck to get it to work again LOL. The trick stopped working and today probably being my last day off this month it was time to replace it!
