The spec'd dry pin weight is 1485.
GVWR on that trailer is 10,500 so an estimated pin weight of 1850 at GVWR
(The 1485 is 18.5% of the dry weight 8040 so it's a reasonable indicator of pin weight percentage, generally 20% of GVWR is used for estimating fifth wheel trailer pin weight.)
If you have weighed in the wet loaded pin weight at 1430 then some light weighting to the trailer has occurred and you're good. If not, it may be more than the published weight. |
Was my first thought, 1430 might be the dry pin weight. If it's like my Cougar that'll turn into 2k pretty quick.
