Re: measuring tongue weight

Has any one ever heard of using a bath room scale to measure tongue weight?

Thanks, Dave


yes, been there, done that. Once you get to 1500lbs or so on the tongue the bathroom scale method becomes problematic. but for 600, 800 lbs, not an issue. Just use your math some pipe and 2x6.

do a search and you will see lots of pictures showing how to calculate tonque weight from scale weight. accurate measuring is the key.
