Heavier than I thought it would be but it works for me.
2004.5 Chevy D/A 2500 HD and 2013 Cedar Creek 34RLSA
Lou,
Your rear axle weight seems very high.
Do you know your unhitched rear axle weight? I would have guessed under 3000lbs.
At 6800lbs... and 3000lbs empty... your looking at a pin weight of ~3800lbs.
The dry pin weight of the 34RLSA is 2085lbs. I'm curious about the factory options you added and what other heavy items you may have loaded in the trailer. What's the dry weight of the trailer from the yellow sticker on the door?
Or possibly you are carrying other heavy cargo in the bed of the TV.
To ensure you're not exceeding the weight ratings, use free the calculator at Fifth Wheel St.
