Not enough info, how much tongue weight, axle weights before and after and with and without WD. All we know for sure is you are over weight by a few pounds buty not how much you are over on the rear axle.

If you are over your GVWR is most often the case that you are over on your RAWR which can be a serious safety issue. I hope that the OPs "rose colored" glasses aren't too dark to see the light in what might really be going on.Larry

Just the strange and very generic way he gave use his weights makes me wonder in and of itself.Larry
