Terryallen, your are including the 280lbs removed from the front axle in your 1300lb tongue weight. The TW is actually 1020.
Personally I could care less about a little squat. My F250 sits an inch higher in the front with nothing attached due to the giant springs that are part of the snow plow package. Not all trucks sit high in the back unloaded. And the rear squating a bit does not automatically mean it is not set up correctly.
Actually I wasn't, but I got my tongue weight from the last set of numbers he had. 2800lb unloaded rear axle, and a 4100lb loaded rear axle. Come to 1300lb. Meaning he has an approx 22% tongue weight. Pretty high. Not only is the truck over loaded, but so is the receiver. Seriously needs to move some weight in the TT.
