Jim good to see you here also! Curious at 28,400# combined are you over 14k on the 6 truck tires? I am guessing VERY close either way. NOT that it matters.
Actually, latest weight check with my wife, me, two dogs , full tank of DEF and full tank of diesel, loaded for trip, and 5er loaded for fulltiming, heading to TX in late Dec of 17 was 5600# for front axle, 400# under FAWR Of 6,000#
8200# for rear axle, 1550# under RAWR Of 9750#
=13,800# .... 200# under GVWR. 14,000#
=10880# under GCWR Of 39,100# .
You . Loaded truck without 5er
Steer axle=5500#
Drive axle=3940#
With 5er
Steer axle = 5600#
Drive axle= 8200#
Trailer axle= 14,420#
Pinweight 8200-3940# = 4260# + 100# on front axle=4360#
Trailer weight is 14,400# + 4360# = 18,760#.. camper rated at 19K with 2 8K axles. Camper is probably lighter now. Very recently got rid of the couch/ sleeper and 2 recliners. Replaced with better furniture but lighter.
Hope that helps
Weights are from Certfied Automated Truck scales at truck stop off I40 in Candler NC.
