Finally weighed the TV and TT together... ugh
I thought maybe you math geniuses could help me out with my questions? TV = '12 Ram 1500, Hemi, 3.92 gears, 6800 GVWR, 1219 lb payload, GAWR 3900 lbs (front and rear), GCWR 15,500 TT = '13 Salem ...

RinconVTR - I thought about adjusting it but thought I would see what you all had to say before I did it!
APT - The measurements were with the equalizer fully hooked up. I have not weighed it just tongue on ball.
dahkota - Straight off the scale sheet has front axle at 3500, rear axle at 4340 and trailer axles at 6180. That has the TV at 7840 while connected to the trailer. The 6140 weight was just truck, full tank of gas and family.
A dumb question, if the GAWR is 3900 lb per axle, does that make the rear axles have a total of 7800 lbs and my 4340 is well under it?
One thing I just remembered is that I have the Timbrens on there to help with the sag of the rear end. Could that have anything to do with it?
