Thanks for all the suggestions. Food for thought. I weighed the Alpenlite that burned a little over a year ago on a CAT scale, total weight 15,740, pin 3,420 with all tanks empty. We have been fulltimers for eight years with this same setup.
The only problem has been the G rated tires on the trailer. I went to H rated tires and have had no problems since. I couldn't have asked for a better handling lash up, down the road, in strong cross winds south of Indio, panic stops to miss deer. Bought truck and trailer new in CA and have 237,000 on the truck. A lot of that with the trailer since daughters and granddaughters live in the northeast.
I had weights for MS but can't find them. I try to decypher Motorcycle Jacks URL suggestion.
Thanks again I'll take all the advise I can get. jr
