Concerned about being weighed. I'm 240 lbs. over gross on truck. Rear tires and axle are just under. Front axle only gained 60 lbs. Fiver axles and tires are fine.
If you are only 240# over GVWR and rear axle and tires are just under sounds like you are running a fiver on a max tow, not max payload F150.
This where things get a little questionable, I for one would rather see an F150 over GVWR pulling a 5er than a long heavy TT as the 5er is naturally more stable.
Would rather see it as a Max/Max doing it, but make sure your tires are up to the weight carried.
I will never tell anyone to run over their TV ratings, that is their decision. I for
One will never exceed tire ratings!!!! I don't even like being close to them,
