This photograph shows a riveted metal manufacturer's data/specification plate from Jerr-Dan Corporation (1080 Hykes Road, Greencastle, PA 17225; 1-800-926-9666) mounted on a rollback carrier/tow truck body. The plate identifies the unit as Model No. 16AWL, Serial No. 38336, with a deck capacity of 8,000 lbs and a towbar/wheellift capacity of 3,000 lbs, noting these figures indicate structural capacity of the components rather than effective transport load. Truck chassis information lists VIN 1GBKC34FXVJ106316 with a 114-inch cab-to-axle (C.A.) dimension. Rear axle weight rating (GAWR) is 11,000 lbs for the first (drive) axle, with no second (tag) axle (N/A). A weight table states maximum allowable loads with tag axle up: 4,850 lbs on the carrier deck with 0 lbs on the towbar/wheellift, or 2,000 lbs on the carrier deck with 1,500 lbs on the towbar/wheellift (tag-axle-down values are all N/A). Warning text explains that exceeding the effective transport load can cause loss of vehicle control, serious injury, or death, and that ratings depend on the specific chassis — Jerr-Dan must be contacted for a revised rating if the equipment is moved to another chassis. The plate is copyright 1993 by Jerr-Dan Corporation.
