Bedlam,
What Cab to axle did you get? How is the ride. The overall length of my trailer is much less than your. Did you have any problems adjusting to the trailer camper combination when you first went to that type of set up.
With that type of set up I imagine It's not hard to get to 26,000 lbs. I understand that RV's aren't limited to 26,000 lbs for class c licence. Have you found that to be true?
I have the crew cab with 60" CA chassis. It is a foot longer than a crew cab long bed but turns sharper due to the wide front axle. It is tagged at 19,000 lbs GVWR and 26,000 lbs GCWR. If it had the 4.88 gearing, the ratings would be higher. I chose the 4.44 ratio for better highway cruising.
I bought the truck less two weeks ago and this week will be our trial run with the truck camper. The bed, gooseneck and receiver add over 1000 lbs to the rear so it has not been a bad ride empty. With 4000 lbs on the rear, I get 2" of sag and overloads still are not touching. Once filled with water and hitched to my trailer, the overloads should touch the pads.
WA does not have license classification for heavy weight personal use but does charge for tonnage wear on roads.
