Hi Tony, yes, the rest, 3480#, is on the truck.
That day there was 3480# plus the 10980# for a total of 14460#. The trailer’s gvwr is 16350#.
I posted to show the original poster that on the 3121’s, at least the way we load it, there is still a lot of room left on the axles. No need really for 8k axles….Unless he just wants them.
Our scaled empty weight on the way home from the dealer on day one was 12600# with 2560# of that on the pin and 10040# on the axles.
Our model has very little storage aft of the axles, almost all cargo weight is in front of the axles and ends up being split just about evenly between axles and pin. That day there was 920# of cargo on the pin and 940# on the axle. I am trying to get my wife to hang less clothes in the closet
