Trailer front wheels warmer, WDH the cause?
Question: Will having the WDH set too tight cause extra weight on the front axle of the TRAILER? I followed the directions for re-setting up my weight distribution hitch and now the tires on the front...

I can tell you from personal experience (and perhaps my ignorance as a new owner years ago), that my 13 inch single axle trailers tires would routinely go from 50 psi cold on a 70 degree day to 65 psi after a 60 mile ride never exceeding 60 mph.
Turns out my wife was packing way more stuff in the camper than we should have, but as the driver, I was responsible for knowing my load.
It was our third or fourth trip of the first season... We were getting ready to leave on a Friday morning, and I said I'd like to stop at my friends scrap yard just out of curiosity and weigh each axle. Turns out the trailer tires were each overloaded by about 250 pounds, and our Ford explore rear axle was right at max load.
