Hers is a simple example of how to determine how much weight you will add to your front axle depending on pin placement VS center of rear axle.
My truck has a 170" wheelbase, if i move my hitch 4" forward that will mean I will transfer .0235% of my 6k pin weight or 141#. This does jive with my loaded and unloaded front axle weights.
