over on RAWR occassionally
I have reweighed my truck and fifth wheel setup fully loaded to the max of what I could reasonably expect to carry. I am not over my GVWR but am over by 400 lbs. on my rear axle. What remedial action ...

If your talking RAWR from the door sticker, then here's not much you can do. However if your truck has a sister truck that can carry more i.e, 2500-3500, then some components may overlap and in theory you can add after market items to beef up the rear. But generally speaking if your truck is a 1/2 ton and you're over the RAWR from the door sticker then there's nothing you can do.
I was in a similar predicament with a 10 F150. I was sitting at 4,000 on the rear with a RAWR of 4050lbs. Being that heavy didn't help the towing any and I traded up to a 2500. Yes I was at the limit, and as far as weights were concerned I was not over but the truck was at max CCC, RAWR and GVW, while still being under GCVWR. Typical 1/2 ton.
What truck do you have?
