GVWR (Gross vehicle weight
rating)
This is the maximum allowable
weight of the fully loaded vehicle
(including all options, equipment,
passengers and cargo). The GVWR
is shown on the certification label.
Overloading
A locking differential, if equipped, is
for the rear wheel differential only.
The features of this locking differen-
tial are described below:
Just as with a conventional differen-
tial, the wheel on one side is allowed
to turn at a different speed from the
wheel on the other side when the
vehicle is cornering. The difference
between the locking differential and a
conventional differential is that if the
wheel on one side of the vehicle
loses traction, a greater amount of
torque is applied to the rear wheel on
the other side to improve traction.
Information
In a stationary position, the LD
(Locking Differential) will operate
when the difference of the revolution
speed between the rear right wheel
and the rear left wheel occurs.
i
The gross axle weight rating
(GAWR) and the gross vehicle
weight rating (GVWR) for your
vehicle are on the certification
label attached to the driver's (or
front passenger’s) door.
Exceeding these ratings can
cause an accident or vehicle
damage. You can calculate the
weight of your load by weighing
the items (and people) before
putting them in the vehicle. Be
careful not to overload your
vehicle.
