Wieght distribution system
[QUOTE=Smitty4188;81410]Hello, Iam purchasing a used 2021 Colman 1805 that weighs 4458 lbs. I will be pulling with a Chevy 1500 with a 5.3 motor. The previous owner told me the salesman said they did not need a WDH because the trailer was so light. Does this sound accurate?
Thanks[/QUOTE
I pull with a 2003 GMC 1500 sounds same as you use.
My trailer is a 2016 Kodiak Exxpress Ultra Lite 22ft .
The truck max load is 6400 lbs 14000max combined weight.
Usually on the roadtrip the truck is at 5400 to 5800lbs loaded.
The trailer unloaed is 4300lbs 6k max
The trailer is usually 5500 to 5800lbs loaded.
Combined weight 10900lbs to 11600lbs.
I use a curt 10,000lbs Wieght Distribution System with 1,000lb tongue weight bars,
And two anti-sway bars.
The truck pulls the trailer Great, no sway, evenly balanced, even following semi trucks pulling 40ft trailers 80 MPH (the speed limit for trucks pulling trailers) on interstate 15 threw Ceader city in Utah, smooth as silk.
Happy trails.
