Congratulations on the new trailer. It is going to be a nice combo I'm sure.

Regarding your rear axle, I assume your new trailer was pretty much empty when you took the weights above. So although the RA load looks good now, it is going to exceed the 6,100# rating when you get loaded up for full-timing. As I said above, that's okay because it is an F350 axle, but you need to check those rear tire/wheel ratings. That is a piece of info you left out above. You really don't want to exceed maximum load rating on a tire.

Either you have a problem with reading, or didn't even bother reading. Or maybe you think it is okay to exceed tire load ratings. Because that is the only advice I gave.

bpounds - Thank you for your advice. Tire load ratings was one of the things I checked. I was actually surprised to find out that my tires can handle more than the axle. You would think it was the other way around. I don't have the tire numbers with me and DW has the truck at work today. Seriously though, thanks for looking out. It's one of the reasons I like this forum. Somebody out there can clue you in on the things you either didn't know to look for or you simply forgot and overlooked it. Keep it up. Please.
