CAT scale and stabilizers...

Great explanation Doug. That should be handed out with every weight distribution hitch sold.

Doug.... THANK YOU!!  As I mentioned in my msg to you, I actually printed this out to take with us :)

 

Just one question:  Our plan was to weigh the truck (by itself) before we pick up the trailer... okay, I don't think I actually have a question with that.  On the hitch (you mentioned removing it, but we can't).  We purchased a ProPride which is actually attached to the trailer itself.  Does this make a difference??

I'd change the plan to weigh after you pickup the camper. That way you know everything is 100% the same (same amount of fuel, same amount of goodies in the tow vehicle with you, etc.).

 

I think you'd leave the hitch connected, just undo the weight distributing bars between weighing #1 and #2. Leave everything else the same. Then, for weighing #3 (truck only) - I'd disconnect essentially everything from the truck as you normally would when you're not camping.
