Effect of W/D hitch in lbs transfered
I understand how a W/D hitch works but is there a chart or formula that lists the actual pounds transferred off the hitch. I'm researching to see if a Ram 1500 is going to be sufficient to tow my 21'...

Ok, I read the post and think I understand it.
To clarify, lets say that my tongue weight of 1050 lbs is the max that my hitch will carry and also put the truck at max gvw. (not the case but just an example)
So, by using the W/D hitch, some of the weight will come off the truck and be transferred to the trailer axles putting the truck under gvw by the amount transferred to the trailer?
Is sounds like the actual weight on the hitch remains the same?
