dernstExplorerSep 01, 2016Tongue weight & equalizerI am buying a Ultra Lite 2702ws which has a tongue weight of 800 pounds. My dealer says that an equalizer will be able to reduce the tongue weight in half. Does this seem correct?
HybridhunterExplorerSep 08, 2016Tongue weight is part of the load on the truck, how u figure it is not counted against the cargo capacity?The WDH just determines on which axles the weight is distributed, and yes, some of it ends up back on the trailer axle.Further to that point, tongue weight affects the use of GAWR's, GVWR, but not GCWR.
