Thought I would post my weights here. I recently had a blowout and that led me to doing a lot of reading on weights, loads, limits, tires, etc. Here are my results:
1995 F250 with 1 ton axles swapped in. 4X4, extended cab, long bed, diesel, 4 inch lift, 35 inch tires, 5 speed.
Front GAWR 4600 (with stock axle)
Rear GAWR 6084
GVWR 8800
GCWR 14,500/17,000 (3.55/4.10)
2005 Wilderness 305RLDS AX6. 9650 manufacture empty weight.
Below weights are with me in the cab, half tank of fuel, holding tanks empty, loaded with all our other gear.
Empty truck with half tank of fuel
Front axle 4100
Rear axle 3000
Both axles 7100
Trailer and truck:
Truck front axle 4150
Truck rear axle 4800
Truck both axles 9000
Trailer front axle 4350
Trailer rear axle 4350
(Trailer roadside 4300)
(Trailer curbside 4500)
Trailer both axles 9050
Total trailer 10800 (disconnected from truck)
Total weight truck and trailer 18050*
Pin weight 1900*
Looks like the scale had some variance, but its close enough for my purposes. (*) denotes calculated value versus scale value.
