There is a sticker in my glove box that says slide in camper weight for truck is 1141 I'm thinking I could remove fridge and in boat shift weight to rear to get weight off tongue. Camper is not close so I can't go try it. Anyone have this setup. Thanks
You will be extremely over weight, need to consider people, and any gear weight into this. Tire rating up for that? Timbrens or air bags do not increase GVWR! Less tongue weight will make the trailer sway, so you’ll have an over loaded truck with a trailer you can’t control…
Glad I don’t live near you
