weight

Good day folks! First post here. I haven't visited the welcome mat yet because everyone loves photos of the rigs but I have yet to pick mine up. I have done a little searching here and found a wide variety of answers (1400-2700?!?). I will soon be picking up a new-to-me 34 WRS (2016). I know the...

I am doing research on the weight limit of a hybrid bed and am unable to locate information. I am interested in the ePro 17PR or its twin gPro 17PR. I have only seen pictures of the trailer on the internet and it appears the bed is supported by cables?, and not using dropdown support bars like...

I had flat towed a 2006 Miata (2500 lbs) for a short time and then switched to flat towing a 2013 Lincoln MKZ (3900 lbs) for another couple of years. I am now considering a GMC Canyon Crew Cab at 4600 lbs. I realize the truck is rated at 10,000 lbs towing. But I do recall my horror when I...

I dont know the right terms for various parts, but giving it a try... The pins that lock the bar into the hitch (on the TV end of the bars).... I just went to pick up TT and found that the pin/spring??? on one side of the hitch was missing. Bar woill not lock in on this side. IDK when or wher...

Well, wondering if this might get any response ? Are my weights reasonable? I have a 2019 Geo Pro G19FD, and am at the top end of Factory max trailer weight. Factory says 2840 lbs dry +1060 lbs of goodies = 3900 lbs. I loaded everything up in the trailer and the truck that I could think of, and...

Hello All: I am looking for some help to calculate these numbers for payload and yow weight. I drove my truck and trailer on the scale and these are the numbers I have. Ram truck weigh alone was 6460 lbs Trailer weight 6398 Lbs Truck and trailer on scale was Steer axle 3040 lbs...

My girlfriend and want to move up from our Rockwood A122 A-frame popup trailer to a Geopro. I have seen a lot of discussion about hitch weights, tow weights, GVWR, etc. I understand the importance of the cargo capacity of trailer and tow vehicle, axle ratings, and the 10% to 15% rule...

Looking at this trailer web site says the hitch weight is 728lbs .The I’ve is 5574lbs and gvwr is 7500. Hitch weight seems high is the726 hitch weight fully loaded at 7500 or the upward of 574. I want to tow with f150. Thanks

Just wondering if anybody knows the weight of the M2 106 chassis used for the DX3/Force prior to anything being built on top of it. I'm trying to figure out the weight of the "house" that Dynamax builds. My theory is GVWR - OCC - chassis weight = house weight.

Hi all! Has anyone weighed their 2706ws or very similar rockwood ultra light at the scales to figure out its loaded tongue weight? I’m in the middle of purchasing a 2018 private party. Just waiting for some warranty work to be done. Anyways, I purchased an Equalizer Hitch for 300 bucks the...

I can't find out anywhere what the roof weight capacity is for a geo pro 12srk. I was wondering about adding a roof tent to the existing prorak on the roof, or putting a heavier duty rack if needed. Anyone know roof weight capacity? Thank you.

I recently bought a used travel trailer. I just had my whole rig weighed and ran in to problems. I weighed each axle sedately, with the trailer attached and empty. The truck was empty except for me. All the axles were under their rated limits except the rear truck axle which was 100lbs over...

I came to my ponderings after finding out i owe a larger tax amount because Virginia DMV gave us truck plates. So looking at the title, they have empty weight, gross weight, GVWR, GCWR fields. Only the empty weight of 7370 and the gross weight of 12200 have any numbers there. Looking at the...

Has anyone tried this thing? I came across this today and was wondering if there are any user comments. As I look into it, it claims to be able to give you a truck wt., payload wt., and when you hook up, a tongue/pin wt. and trailer wt.. https://www.etrailer.com/Tools/Haul-Gauge/HG103.html...

Is there any info on how much the Isata 3 (circa 2018 FW) spare and wheel together weigh? And same question for them individually? Thanks! (Quote below is from a related, closed thread)

We have a 2019 26RBWS.It has a tongue weight of 908lbs. We also added the second ac in the bedroom and we have the 4pt equlizer hitch.Both of these added weight to the actual weight thats put on the rear of the truck.How can I find out what the real tongue weight is with the added weight? This...

Went to the CAT scales to weigh just my TV with my E2 hitch on with no bars, DW and my son... TV loaded as if we were going to hook up and go. I need opinions on numbers. Went through twice just to see if everything matched up. Steer Axle: 3520 (GAWR 3950) Drive Axle: 2560 (GAWR 3950) TAW...

I am fairly new to RV’ing and have not had much experience towing my trailer. I am wondering if I have set up my hitch properly or maybe I need a higher rated one. My TV is Dodge Ram 1500 and my WD bars are rated at 800-1200 lbs. I took my rig to the scales today and this is how the numbers came...

Good Morning , I purchased a new 2018 2650WS and decided I would run it over a scale to check the weights , looking at the spec sheets for this it says dry weight should be 7631lbs and I am just under that dry and pin weight should be 1263 lbs , and loaded I am just under the GVWR for the...

I just ordered a Sherline Trailer Tongue Scale. The pamphlet that comes with it seems very detailed but my question is, once I get a measurement from the scale do I have to add the weight of the elements of my WDH (drop hitch bar and round bars) to that measurement?

Bought a Sherline tongue weight scale to figure out my tongue weight. Took it multiple times. I was around 750 pounds "Semi Loaded" GTW is 7687... I can't imagine me adding much more weight. Maybe a couple hundred pounds near the axles and towards the front of the trailer to get to that 10-15%...

Just made a visit to the CAT scales in my Ram 2500 towing 8500 lb trailer. Unloaded steer axle weight: 3800 Trailer hooked up, no WD: 3300 Trailer hooked up, with WD: 3480 How much weight should I shoot for to be returned to steer axle? Only transferred 180 lbs back and I am at maximum...

Ok I've read enough great info here to know I needed to check my GCVW. My TV is a 2016 Ram eco diesel 4x4 and TT is a Freedom express 246 Rks. So as we left for a trip I stopped at the scales. Truck from factory is #5400, GAWR 3900 front and rear, truck payload #6900,GCVW is 14500. I can see my...

Just a few questions about the WDH and the LCH. Is a WDH universally required in all travel trailer and tow vehicle situations? I understand the purpose of a WDH is to transfer some of the hitch weight to the steering axle of the tow vehicle. Is there a situation where the travel trailer and...

I need to wash the roof of my 2013 Coachman Catalina Santara Series 282 BHS travel trailer. In order to get a good cleaning of the roof and inspect it as well, I feel I need to get on the roof. I have seen multiple people on RV roofs before. Here lies the problem, I am a big man of 350 lbs...
