Chris, good luck with the weigh in!
Have you lightened the bed boxes a bit? I assume you will post numbers once you have scaled good or bad.

I will post the weights here as they are relevant to the OP situation.
Steer 5120
Drive 6620
Truck 11740
Trailer 12780
Total 24520
So the truck is over it's 11,700 GVWR but under it's licensed weight of 12K.
Overall happy with these numbers. Given a trailer with 500 pounds more dry pin weight, it appears that I would be over on my rear axle with OPs new trailer.
I will guest that my pin weight is around 3000-3200 pounds, so trailer is right around 15780K and I have a little more CC. These weights we have in the trailer would put the OP trailer way over it's GVWR.
