Need to download the CAT Scale App and stop off at one to do the adjustments.
Return the Steer Axle to same weight as solo truck (drop trailer and do a pass for that ) after two runs across scale with TT in tow. WD tensioned, and WD slack.
At or very near front axle load restoration will be best performance.
TT needs to be level. Use a level across door opening.
Second is TV tire pressure. Needs to conform to load versus pressure requirements. Not too high, as that degrades ride, handling & braking any more than too low.
Tire choice is big. See threads on “best” half ton truck tires.
Upgrade the TV to at least entry level Koni or Bilstein shock absorbers.
