I have found that load balance varies considerably from trip to trip.
Loaded heavy for a fishing trip to the Ozarks the scales indicated I had 13% of the TT weight on the tongue. On another shorter local trip the scales showed the TT was 550 lbs lighter and the tongue weight dropped to 9% of the TT weight.
I suspect most of the weight change was in the front storage hold.
I cannot say there was much difference in the handling; wind, trucks, roads and hills seem to have a greater impact. I do adjust the WD hitch to keep the TT level.
