Hi

Give us the year of the TV and engine or tow package information.

You didn’t say if the wear is even?

I would go to a truck scale with the trailer and see what your weights are. A truck scale will give you your steering axel, drive axel and both trailer axel weights as well as a total weight.

I have our 2009 3500 4 door long bed DRW Duramax tires rotated every oil change in accordance with the owners manual. So far so good I am on my third set of tires and they all wear out at the same time. I am towing at a total weight of 23,300 Lbs.

I weigh at least once a year and normally on the first long trip of the year. You will find a tendency for the unit to gain weight. I just went thru ours in preparation for the trip to Tennessee this week and you would be surprised what got unloaded from the trailer.

Basically if you can’t remember when you used it last you don’t need it in the trailer. This of course is exempting the tire change tools and equipment Etc.
