Here are the numbers that explain what happens when I hook up and the front is higher than the rear (unlevel). The weight shifts with less on the front and more on the rear when I hook up. Simple physics. Ignore the mid weight as it is really the rear. Front is to the left. Pin weight was 3,050 (20%) in 2017 and 3,475 (21%) in 2021. Also keep in mind that the left rear weight would be fairly difficult to lower as the reefer sits there. It is clear that when on the truck, ~600# is added to the rear tires and put that axle overweight.
