Me Again made a good point, it's a triple axle so that should lower the pin to 15% maybe a bit more. Best to weigh, like we mentioned the 17" tires are a potential problem.
"Even 12V is a weight cop now? Lol" NAW, just pointing out potential issues.
True story on the 17s. Good that you and MeAgain identified that. I tend to overlook it since it’s so economical and easy to solve that problem. (If the OP is actually still running them crusty ole 17” wheels). And should be obvious to anyone who who is hooking or hauling anything significant.
Fun fact, there are some higher rated 17s being produced again. I’ll never understand the 17” LT tire mystery…
