PIN WEIGHT........
Nose high...lighter pin (can cause chucking in hitch)
Shift on weight t trailers rear axle/tires
Nose low....unnecessary increase in pin weight.
Can overload trucks rear axle/tires if close to ratings
Level tow....
Trailer axle/tires carry equal amounts (give/take floorplan)
Pin weight within margin....20%-25%
Smoother tow
