Front and rear axle loads

At 58/42, the 4,012 lbs puts about 2,327 lbs on the front axle and 1,685 lbs on the rear — 642 lbs more over the front wheels, which is what front tires and front brake pads wear against first.

The two axles are not the same width either: 63.4 in of track at the front against 62.2 in at the rear, 1.2 in narrower behind.

How the figure moved since 2015

The lightest 2015 record is 4,147 lbs; the lightest 2016 record is 4,012 lbs — 135 lbs lighter (3.3%).

At the top of the range the 2016 file reaches 4,145 lbs against 4,147 lbs in 2015, a 2 lbs reduction — driven by which configurations exist, not by the same truck gaining mass.
