No my trailer neck is too short. The most I have ever seen was about 17. I run right at 14 full of fuel. Like 13500 or 13.8

I run a 5900 int. With set forward axle.

Generally I can get around 15500 to 16000 with the lift down. And about 55500 on the tri-group. I have to be careful. If I push it to 60 I run like 18, 21,21. Which I don't think is quite legal in some states. If I take too much wgt off the steers, it kinda floats down the road. Makes me nervous.
DarkhorseEnterprises, Oxbow and cnsper Thank this. -
I really aught to run 315's on the steer. But I think I'd have to swap out rims

With my truck and 108" swing neck, 60' drive and cheater spreads I can get a legitimate 20,20,20 with about 16,000 on the steer. When I lift the axle I can get a little over 17 up front. My next rig will be able to get 20 all the way back.

I'm stuck with an 89" inch swing I think it is. I wish it had 102 or 108. That extra foot means a lot. What do you run empty on the steers?

I went out to Nebraska this weekend. Those guys were tuff. They weighed each axle in the group. I was 108580 gross. Everything was good except I was 700 lbs over on the first trailer axle. They made me get it right before I left.
