The truck does have a set of 3" leveling springs and 1.5" spring stack (which replaces the stock overload leaf) from Kore. Tires are 34" (vs. 31" stock). Very conservative set up over stock.
I'll try to get it to a car crushing place close by that has a full semi length scale to get various numbers off it.
I have been applying quite a bit of load on the Blue Ox tension rods...only 2 full links exposed. I'll try 80/80 on the tires and maybe 2 more links added on the rods.
I know these trailers are pigs on the tongue from other members like 2500 Grunt... http://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/fuseaction/thread/tid/28095194/gotomsg/28096311.cfm#28096311 BUT maybe I am adding too much tension with the blue ox and getting a tad too nose high from the 60 psi in the airbags.
