HOTR,
Of course you are correct that one must reduce the load by truck weight and contents that ride on the rear axle. That all must be subtracted to find a net margin. I have not run bubba across the scales yet. Fully loaded with trailer hooked on my 2500HD I had 7380 pounds on the rear axle. Thats why I traded. I figure with Bubba's extra rear wheels and longer bed I will have maybe 500 pounds more on that axle and will still be under 8200 pound GAWR and well under the Tire limit of 9880. That remains to be seen.
Dave
