4800lb trailer+1200 stuff =6000lb trailer X .12 = 720 tongue weight
Meaning on my sticker 1228-720=508 lbs in the truck?
Did I do that right?
Looks right. Don't forget to add the weight of the weight distribution hitch (100 or so).
Curious what is the rear axle ratting (RAWR)?
Do you have the integrated brake controller?
You ever get any wind up there? Heading into the Rockies? If so you may find towing at your max capacities to be a little stressful. Air bags do nothing to increase payload but can help stability. Also a top of the line weight distribution hitch and LT tires help stability.
Good luck,
