Arctic Fox 990 specs:
dry weight 3605#
AF basic package (jacks, awnings, etc) 595#
Water, 2 batteries, 2 propane tanks 660#
Total: 4860
You need to add weight for personal items such as generator, clothing, cooking/eating gear, food, lawn chairs, BBQ, tools, etc, etc. You are very likely to exceed 1000# for these items.
TOTAL: 5860
Almost all of that weight will fall on the rear axle. For my truck the base rear axle weight is 3200#. If yours is the same the new total on the rear axle is 9060# or 4530# on each rear wheel and tire.
Don't fool around with this. Load up for camping and weigh your rig. Then decide if you are comfortable with a grossly overloaded rig including overloaded tires.
