Now, on the pin weight versus jack weight issue, if you were weighing just the jacks by themselves, no trailer axles on the scale, that would not be the same as the pin, because there is about an 8 foot length difference between the pin to axle measurement, versus the jack to axle measurement. The jack weight will be significantly higher than the pin weight.
Interesting thing about this statement (which is true), is that it means the weight on your tires is less when your trailer is sitting at camp, than when you are hitched up. The weight forward of the landing gear is lifting weight off of the tires.
Just thought I would add that in to further confuse some.
