I know im going to get a lot of opinions, but please try to keep the answers scientific as possible. I am trying to compare the hitch weight of a fifth wheel trailer to the tongue weight of a bumper...
I understand if you use a WD hitch it changes things, Im asking is the force 4x the tongue weight because it 4' from the axle? how do you calculate what the actual force is. the 5er should be 1:1 since it sits over the axle.
