Dargo, one last thing I forgot to do before hitting send on the last comment.

In regards to this statement of yours: I have no regard for anything you say since you've proven to me that your opinion is of no value. If someone cannot post something worth my time to read, why bother.

On the Main screen of this website click on "My Home".

When the next screen appears look at the drop down menu on the left side. Under the heading "Settings and Options" click on "Edit Ignore List".

The next screen will give you a space to type in any LogOn that you want to ignore. In that block enter my LogOn as "ovrszd", not overloaded as you think it is. Then click on "Okay".

Exit that screen.

From that moment on when you Log into this website all posts of mine will be gone. You'll never have to put yourself thru the grueling process of reading anything I write because you already know it's of no value.

Again I apologize for taking you down this road.

Wow! 17 pages.

Responding to the math on page 1 or 2 from the OP: Your numbers add up to ~7600# for your gross vehicle. Just a bit over the trailer math in the vehicle manual for towing limits (7500# as I recall). So, reasonably close to the book (which likely used rounded numbers for safety margins anyhow).

I wasn't going to read all 17 pages to get here. My apologies if someone else pointed out the error.

If you read my post again, that is what I described. Once a GN it touching the ball, I can shove it over enough to drop on the ball. If someone can pickup a GN trailer, I would indeed call them 'sir'.

Maybe I didnt say it right on my first post, but as I and you describe, thats what I ment.
