Don't forget to weigh the truck and subtract that from the GVWR on the door jamb sticker to determine the max pin weight for the trailer

Nice looking rig. Looks like you'll be able to haul a toy or two between cab and trailer also

Smart car system on the deck for our daily driver. Other toy will live in the garage of SOB.

What exactly will you be towing with that rig ? Are you going to single out the axle or just leave it double. ?

Decided to leave it tandem as it would take a lot of maintenance and tires to cover the cost of singling it. We were going to go with a custom build 5er but after a lot of back and forth decided to go with one of the heavier “production” build toy haulers.

I showed my wife your new TV and her first words were "Holy S@$T." That is awesome. I envision seeing your TV towing a mile long chain of Montanas, like a freight train.

Maybe if you added an extra leaf to the springs. Wouldn’t add any to the weight rating but it wouldn’t sagg as much. Might help.

Not yet we haven't but that is the plan. Someone will wind up with a real good rig with all the bugs worked out and shortcomings rectified.
