Another weight question

Most FWs will have a pin wt between 20-25 percent, dry or loaded. You are showing less than 14 percent dry pin. That would be closer to tongue wt of a TT.

Well its obvious that im not fully understanding these numbers. The advertised pin wt is 1115,we will only carry appx 400 lbs of cargo which will increase the pin wt a bit,but 1900 ? How did you come to that number?

Realistically, your FW will weigh about 9500 lbs as it is going down the road loaded for a camping trip. That will give you a pin weigh of about 1900 lbs minimum. Now do the math using the realistic numbers.

If the dry weight of FW is 8,150,dry pin should be around 1,600, not 1,115. You should still be able to stay under your axle rating. The GCVWR will be close, hope your transmission is up to the task.

My truck with fuel and passengers is 7800,dry pin of 1115 would make 8900,correct? My GCWR is 17000 which means adding the curb weight of 7800 and the pin weight of 1115 and the GTW puts me just beyond the 17000. Would this be correct conclusion then?

Depends on what you mean by ok. What are you are trying to be ok with?
Will you exceed the GVWR - Yes
Will you exceed the payload rating - yes
Will you exceed the tow rate rating - maybe not
Will you exceed the GCVWR - yes

Pin weight half or so of TV’s rating? Bring kitchen sink if desired.

Travel light? Just pack it how you want it.

My truck for comparison has 3100 on the rear axle 'empty'. That leaves you with 3k worth of tire. Truck empty is 7900 (full fuel, driver, toolbox, and tonneau). My trailer has a 1k tongue ready to camp minus toys. Load my wife and 2 kids, generator, wood, extra fuel, misc... 9k is out of the picture. Shoot, I've had 2500lb worth of gravel in mine, but I will admit with that weight the suspension does need a little help with support.

If you are trying to stay under GVWR, it isn't going to happen with that combo. Just remember the difference in a 3500 of our era truck is the rear spring pack.
