If the truck weighs 7400 lbs unloaded ...

60% front / 40% rear = 2960 rear axle weight

Add the 1500 lb camper = 4460 lbs rear axle weight

+ 750 lb tongue load = 5210 lbs rear axle weight

+ 600 lbs gear = 5810 lbs rear axle weight

And ... I'm not suggesting that this is absolutely correct.

What's the maximum CGVWR? Truck, cargo and trailer.


truck specs are as I showed above, taken right off the brochure when I bought the truck.

From that it shows that I am not over stressed in regards to springs and axles
