Would the location of the tank make a difference? My tank is located in the rear of the trailer. Would that have a positive or negative effect vs a tank located in the middle?
I rear tank would be most definitely worse. Besides reducing tongue weight (and hence stability), and sloshing will be amplified the further away from the axles.
My fresh water tank is directly in front of the axles, and happens to hold 103 gallons so it improves the stability of my trailer immensely, simply due to adding 870 pounds to a point ust above and forward of the axles.
