I suspect this is going to be a case of whether you can accept the idea of going over the truck's stated limits. After you do a couple of passes over the scales, one with WD hooked up, and one more pass with the WD bars dis-engaged. Easiest to do this on a three platform scale like a CAT scale. With those numbers and what you already know about the weight of the truck by itself, you can figure everything you need.
I predict you are going to be over..
There a number of folks on this and other forums who are rigged in ways that are over the stated limits, and yet they still feel they have a good towing, and safe combination. Ultimately the decision is yours.
What do you mean? Did you see my weights? I am not over in any aspect, truck GVW or axle ratings.
You did read my post with the weights right?
I am as perfect as can be. Restored front axle to original, 420 ilb tongue...etc?
I dont see any problem. If you see something I dont let me know.
