Like the OP I would like to be able to take a hundred or so pounds off my hitch weight and transfer it to the rear axles. Then I could load more into the bed.
Unfortunately, the TT design does not lend itself to doing that.
I have did not noticed any difference in stability between 9 and 14 percent tongue weight with a light or heavily loaded TT. I did notice the increase towing weight.
Trying to setup a TT for the minimum TW is like playing Russian Roulette. You win until you lose.
Don't ask me how I know this.
Yep and Mr. Murphy will make sure that OH **** happens on that mile high bridge - mid span - over one of them bottomless canyon overpasses in Ca with that unexpected hurricane force wind gust hitting you broadside.
Man it's a long way down on some of them bridge overpasses out there.:E
