Dodge typically rates this transmission/chassis combination for 26,000lb GCVW (Gross Combined Vehicle
Weight*). The NPR trucks may have
a GVW rating of 12,000, 14,500 or
17,900 lbs. Check the rating tags on the
chassis/frame to be sure of the rating
for the vehicle youre working on. You
may also find a PTO unit attached or
just a blank plate, and some units are
bolted to a 4WD transfer case.
