Steve,
Not sure how big your trailer is compared to my old one. I think I was in the same area with my 88 ex cab and 96 CC SW 3500's. Trailer was 6500-7000 loaded, typically about 650-750 HW. I lost maybe 60 lbs of wt off the front axel with no WD, so put 40 lbs back on, called it a day!
I barely lifted the front and the back might have gone down an inch with that trailer.
My equipment trailer with 1500 lbs of HW, 11-11.5K lbs total, did take more wt off the front, lifted it, and sunk the rear more. Weight wise off was in the 350-400 lbs relm with 6400 lbs springs, 250-300 when I put 8500 lbs springs in the 96, same as my 05 DW CC.
