One other comment I'd make, is that even with my giant truck, I found the front axle got substanitally lighter and the pressure in my air suspension went way up (like +15 to 20 PSI.) The further out the MC the longer that lever arm and the more of an effect it makes on weight. It might have added 450 pounds on my rear axle, and lowered the front by 150 pounds. I am now remarkably close to my RAWR.....and have a little more to spare on the front. Guess I better put my wife's 200 on the front to balance things out! :) Actually, I doubt I'll put it on the front because of the issues with lights getting blocked but you never know what I'll try next..... I think bicycles on the front would be more likely for us.
