Weighed the Rig

Weighed the new rig last night….

2005 ‘Bourbon 4X4 2500
2008 30’ Classic S/O

Full tank of gasoline
Full fresh water tank
Full LP (30#) tanks

No cargo in either

Equalizer 1200/12000# hitch

Steer axle: 3160 (20%)
Drive alxe:5000 (32%)
Trailer axle: 7480 (48%)
Gross: 15640

From this… I’m planning on really cranking up on the spring arms… the ‘L’ brackets are set about mid-way…
Concerned about approaching the 5500# max rear axle rating…

Gonna load it for a weekend trip… re-weigh…

Wonder if I should leave the current setup, so I can get a baseline?
