A baler (10) for forming a bale (B) includes a frame (12), an axle (22), a sensor (40, 42, 44, 46), and at least one overload stop (28). The bale (B) supports a bale chamber (123). The axle (22) is connected to the frame (12) at a first location and spaced apart from the frame (12) at a second location (L2). The sensor (40, 42, 44, 46) is positioned to measure the deflection of the axle (22). The deflection of the axle (22) changes based upon a weight of the bale (B). The at least one overload stop (28) is positioned on one of the axle (22) and the frame (12) to limit the deflection of the axle (22) relative to the frame (12).
