Ok here's an update, I weighed it not 2 people like last time.
With the fiver,
Front axle, 4,040
Rear axle, 5,600
Fiver axles, 9,880
Total of all, 19,520
Without the fiver,
Front axle, 4,040
Real axle, 2,960
Total of both, 7,000
Weight of fully loaded fiver,
12,520.
Looks a little odd, the front axle weight did not change.
Finally you know the real numbers. Sorry I can't recall your truck ratings, but if the GVWR is 10k, then you have a few hundred lbs margin. And rear GAWR is likely 6200 lbs, so again close but an acceptable margin with proper inflation PSI.
