Steer axle= 2560
Drive axle= 2860
Trailer axle=3320
Total weight=8740
I then un-hitched and weighed just my Tacoma.
steer axle= 2560 (no change)
Drive axle= 2060 (800 lbs. less)
Total weight=4620
Steer axle=2880 (320 lb. increase).
Drive axle=2400 (450 lb. decrease).
That +800 pounds using a WDH which puts about 20% of weight back on the trailer's axles, so about 1000 pounds. Read the sticky thread on how a WDH works.
Your first weights the truck axles were 5420 total. Using 3 fewer links was 5280, so that 140 pounds went back onto the TT axles. Do you think TW changed by 140 pounds?
