Installed Roadmaster Reflex and Got Weighed Today

Got my new recall Michelin's recently and was running 70/75 psi in front/rear, and had the usual sloppy front end wander. It's a 2012 Forrest River Lexington with only 3200 miles. Stock damper was garbage. Installed a Roadmaster Reflex Stabilizer this morning and than took the rig for a weigh in. Rig with full fresh water tank weighed less than I expected/thought. Aired the tires down to 60/65 psi front/rear and it really cleaned up the wander. Rides sooo much smoother.
Been meaning to get this done after reading so many posts about weighing your rig and playing with tire air pressure.
For those of you wondering if it's worth it, it definately is.

It is 4200 lbs, front axle, 8360 rear axle. Rig is a FR Lex 283ts. Full tank gas, full tank fresh water, with clothing, bedding, ect. Full size spare tire n wheel under rear.
Couldn't get each axle corner weighed due to the type of scales---commerical scales up on a slight rise. Mayby next time.

So...you gonna tell us the weights up front? Or should we all take guesses, with you awarding a prize to whoever's closest? :B
