Here are my weights;
LOADED w/ camper
Steer: 3300
Drive: 4600
Trailer: 4840
Total: 12740
UNLOADED
Steer: 3460
Drive: 3300
Trailer: 0
Total: 6760
So am I reading that there is 1300 pounds on the tongue already? How does that play into my WDH that is rated for 1200 LBS and that was the highest one that camco offered?

The difference on the drive axle from with/without should be your tongue weight so 1300 would be right, so your trailer weighs 6,140# without your bike on the front, add the bike and your tongue weight is over 2,000#!
