You might consider going to a nearby CAT scale and get the actual readings.
Had to get the trailer towed out and is sitting now in the closest town to where I was camping about 400km away. no two ways about it the trailer is a big unit.
The 2009 cummins are very similar to my truck and is rated for 18500. Is there anyway to tweek the engine for more pull. I have a guy that builds a crazy tranny for it with dual torque coverters. He says he will warranty the tranny pulling my rig.
I'm not sure about the dual torque converter feature...:h
Why did you have to have the trailer towed out?
