I'll need to verify at a scale after adding a washer but my weights from the last trip were:
No trailer:
Steer axle 3450
Drive axle: 2850
With trailer last trip:
Steer axle: 3405
Drive axle: 4300
This is all hypothetical but.... If I were to take 150 pounds off the rear axle, put 100 up front and 50 back to the trailer my numbers would be:
Hypothetical:
Steer axle: 3500
Drive axle: 4150
Still heavier loaded on the back and closer to a 50/50.
The main reason for me asking was to make sure I wasnt doing something stupid and would cause an unsafe condition (aka jack knifing or something of that nature) but it sounds like I'm no where near that dramatic of a set up yet.
