RV Weight from RVSEF at Rally

This is my weight from the folks at the rally. Nice detail and nothing over limit (they said that I was one of a few without overweight items).

I was overweight by 25#Passenger truck rear and 175# over on Drivers truck rear. All other weights were under by a few hundred pounds. Amazing how things add up. We don't full time but were loaded to the max for upcoming 6 month stay in SC. I have already removed some items but deliberately tried to overload for a "Worse case" scenario. Great to do every few years to understand capacities and if your exceeding those capacities. Another great service provided at the rally.

We were overweight by a lot (Friday weigh in) and not much changed since our last rally weigh in as far as items in truck.
We just did a 20.00 CAT scale at Loves n it was very close. We thought the rally weigh in might be off. It gave us a few readings n will be using that once we go thru the rig to eliminate stuff. I get rid of 180 lbs if I remove my hubby! Just kiddin...I love this guy!

can your fifth wheel hitch be adjusted for moving more weight to front axle?

I don’t think it works that way, payload is the only reason that I have a duality.

If in Randy’s case, where they’re 200 lbs over on rear axle of the truck-moving the fifth wheel hitch forward two inches would transfer weight to front axle of the truck and off the rear

Haven't been on forum in a while---I have no way to move hitch. Curt Q25 in Chevy Puck system has 1 position.
