Overweight!
#1

I have a 95 non slide and just got it weighed today. Steer 15260 lbs, drive 20500 lbs, tag 8740.
My axle limits are 14000 steer, 23000 drive, and 10000 tag.  I have a normal 265 gal tank fwd the rear wheels, and 175 gal. water tank fwd of that. Running about 200 gals in rear tank and full water, empty sewage, and normal gear for traveling. I believe my problem is the front [behind the front wheels] 85 gal generator tank, which has about 70 gals in it. My aqua-hot is in the compartment behind it.
I know I could run the generator tank empty, and drop about 500 lbs, but it appears my gen and aqua-hot suction and return lines only go into fwd tank.  My tag is not adjustable, but even if I lower the pressure on those bags, do not think it will make enough difference and may overload the drive axle. Just bought new 24.5 11r h range for the front. [7100 lbs a 120 psi] so axle, and tires, are overloaded.
Any suggestions?
