Duane, why is there not any accounting for pin weight on a triple axle? It is gonna have something, why not go at it like the 39? Gonna learn something here, I think...
Our new rig empty sat at 20400 with a pin of 3000 lbs which is just 15%. We pulled it from Lazy Days Fl to North Dakota empty and it chucked the whole way. Even now loaded at 24800lbs our pin is 4950 which is closet o 20% pin weight is better. The chucking empty could be felt thru the MorRyde pin box, TrailerSaver Hitch and Semi truck. I could see it more than feel it, but it moved around a lot empty. If the axles were moved rearward about 30+ inches, it would make a huge difference, but then it would make the pin to heavy for many of the dually trucks.
