Bed, tongue weight, and wheelbase

The trailer rating is one limit. The bed has to fit the load, the tongue or pin has to fit in payload, and the wheelbase is the column the chart uses.

  • An illustrative 10 percent of the 10,880 lb conventional maximum is 1,088 lb of tongue weight. This is not a measured load or recommended percentage; actual load may be higher.
  • An illustrative 15 percent of the 11,000 lb gooseneck maximum is 1,650 lb of pin weight. This is not a measured load or recommended percentage; actual load may be higher.
