Payload is a manufacturer number that they are required to put on however has nothing to do with actual tow capacity I believe your truck has 6040lb rear axle and a 6000lb front. As long as you are under those numbers you are fine assuming you have rhe right tires. That's why manufacturers say you have a 19000# tow capacity with a 2100# payload they don't use tbr payload. Also as long as you are under your combined total again it will fine
You don't say what is in the front of the trailer but we can at least see some cabinets at the 5.52 mark, so can we assume there is at least some stuff up front? Also, it would be interesting to repeat the test with the trailer loaded like you normally would.
Yeah there’s def some stuff up front. A generator, tire changer, mattress, riding gear, food storage, and more. I was gonna add a couch and tool box set up but might not anymore cuz of the pin weight
@@JakesTruckandTrailers Yea, it kinda sucks that you lose over 1K lbs of payload with a diesel 2500. Brand doesn't matter either. I learned it the hard way also. Now with the cost of new trucks, I'm stuck with my 2500.
Pushing the limits of a 68RFE is never a good thing. Good luck. I’ll be ordering a 3500 with the ZF. Great video. Keep them coming.
