My track wheels and tires are 44lbs each
the track wheels are about 2 feet from the trailer axle and 4 feet from the hitch
59lbs on the hitch with just wheels on the trailer
0lbs on the hitch with 20 gallons of gas and 50lbs of tool on the opposite side of the axle of the wheels.
Thanks!
I thought I couldn’t make that part any more obvious.  |
Nice! Good to see you are taking that into account!
I'd recommend considering how it balances when unloaded once you get to the track.
One of my past variants was too rear biased when I removed the wheels, so before I unloaded the tires on the front I'd need to use a jack stand on the rear otherwise the front would flip upwards
