Tow Dolly Weight
If the car you are towing weighs 4000 pounds how much of that weight is on the dolly? Thanks
Forum Discussion
The only (1) doc I've ever seen on the topic says figure ROUGHLY 62% of the weight if front-wheel drive, 52% if rear wheel drive.

Of course, ALL the weight still comes into play when towing. You can't expect that you could tow your 4000 lb car on a 3000 capacity hitch just because only 2400 lb are on the dolly 62%). Sir Isaac Newton still rules... inertia is still there when you try to start/stop. And this ignores the weight of the dolly itself.
