Using a Commercial Scale to Determine Tongue Weight for Choosing a Weight Distribution System

Updated 04/19/2017 | Published 04/18/2017

Question:

I recently purchased the e2 WDH, and followed your guide on getting the tongue weight at a commercial scale. My question is when weighing all with 4 wheels of the truck and record the weight of the truck with the trailer attached, should WDH be attached? Thank you

When using a commercial scale to determine your total tongue weight for a weight distribution system, like the Fastway e2 # FA92-00-0800 you will want to weigh the truck connected to the trailer without a system installed.

However, you do want the truck and trailer to be loaded just as they would be if you were going to be towing on a trip.
