    Ended up kinda light on my tractor on this piece. 12/47/42/63/34 for weights if that all makes sense. I did add another 1/8th inch shim to the load bar to move that 3000 pounds back.

    Makes total sense, and thanks for the reply. My tandem jeeps 5th wheels won't go far enough ahead to get any weight on my tri drives, so usually pull them with just a tandem, or use the tri drive and am light on the drives is all. Being in Canada my numbers are in kgs, but if hooked to a jeep and booster, i max out jeep at 17k, trailer 23k, and 9k booster, but my steers are light at 6k and drives 19k usually. So soon i plan to sell one of the tandem jeeps, get a new one a little bit longer, and where the jeeps 5th slides ahead further. I am trying for steers at 7k, and drives 23k. Then i can overweight permit up from there easily as needed. Aspen builds a beauty, but holy crap the cost.
