Here are the specs for Heartland camper:
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) 15,500 lbs
Dry Weight 12,745 lbs
Hitch Weight 2,185 lbs
Carrying Capacity 2,755 lbs
dry hitch weight % = 17% times 15,500 = estimated 2657 hitch weight at GVWR
and her is the KZ camper:
UVW (Unloaded Vehicle Weight)* 12,920
Dry Hitch Weight* 2,290
Dry Axle Weight* 10,630
NCC (Net Carrying Capacity) 2,580
GVWR 15,500
dry hitch weight % = 17.7% times 15,500 = estimated 2747 hitch weight at GVWR
Depending on your truck's GVWR, you only have 400-600 lbs for cargo and passengers if you load either trailer to GVWR. Subtract a couple hundred pounds from that for the hitch.
