Question. Was this all on the same day?
The reason I ask is because the GVW is different(a bit more than I normally see doing the same measurements on a heavier setup), and WDH will have zero effect on GCW. All the weight is still there, just moved. It's also odd, and not really physically possible, that you took 220lbs off of on axle, but added 300 to the others.
It is also possible it was the same day and the scale was off a little.
Even thou you added 300lbs to the FAW and TAW, only 220 came off of the rear axle. To me, and from what I gather most people, that's a transfer of 220lbs, not 300.
Good data collection thou, just some weird number and curious on your thoughts/input on the math discrepancies.
