my 2013 2500HD 6.0 weighs in at 7200 with me and full tank of gas plus fifth wheel.
9500 is stamped GVW
5200 Front- actual is 3840
6200 Rear= actual is 3240
so my rear axle will take an additional 2760, yet my truck will only take an additional 2300... correct.
My fiver's dry weight is 7700; with an 11300 GVW. 20% of which is 2260. So based on my truck's GVW, I am good as long as nothing else goes in the truck.( My wife won't be happy)
With a normal camping load in truck say 400-500 lbs; this how far over my GVW I will be. Have I missed anything?
So the 5200 in the front...my actual of 3840 will vary much so that 1400 lbs in capacity are lost.
