I did not scale the truck trailer yet to figure out how much weight I am pulling off of the front wheels. I need to get the trailer fully loaded, and get the truck full of fuel (140 gal) so I can figure out what is going on weight wise. Still do not have the Anderson hitch, they are backlogged still.

I am hoping for anti sway, not to worried about weight yet, I will see what load management does to keep my weight on the front wheels.
