WD hitch help with TC load?
Somebody please check my thinking here.... I believe adding a weight distribution hitch to my truck camper/cargo trailer setup will help move some of my TC weight from my rear truck axle and redistribute it to the front axle and my trailer. I cannot find any documentation to confirm this as it all seems to be written concerning just the tongue weight of the trailer. In my mind, there should be no difference in tongue weight and load on the rear axle as to what weight is redistributed...true? In the end, I am thinking I could safely redistribute MORE than the tongue weight.
Some specific details about my setup: Loaded for full timing, my TC is very close to my rear axle weight limit. With some tweaks to the truck, it drives just fine. Adding a 4 foot supertruss/non wd hitch/tongue weight of a 7 x 12 tandem axle cargo(250lbs) trailer causes the truck to have light steering over certain kinds of bumps. By adding the wd hitch, I am sure I can remove some of the tongue weight from the rear axle but it seems like I should be able to do more as the cargo trailer is way under it's weight limits.
