Maybe it's just me but it looks like an awful lot of squat for that sized trailer and a super duty in the first picture, it seems like somethings not right there.

Yep - too much tongue weight - probably north of 1,500 lbs.
Up in Douglas lake ranch British Columbia. Lake fishing rig.
Is that the Retrax cover? Looks awesome!
Nice 5er. Which model is that? Putting the 7.3L to work...I like it!
Yes with the T slots. Worth the money!
GD Solitude 375 res. It has been a really good unit for us without any problems. Thanks!
Its actually a 21G. I imagine the 31G would just be more awesome lol! The only issue I have is reading the fuel tank level inside...doesn't see to work anymore but the outside one by the fill cap does. GVWR is somewhere around 9400 or 9600? I was using a Ram 1500 which was good for local area stuff but with the Tremor it can do it all day long just off idle lol!
We love the trailer for our purposes, camping and carrying the HD.
Going to weight the load this morning to see how heavy it is out of curiosity.
Hay season! Truck pulls like a champ
I would say based on the picture that you have the weight too far forward. With a pin weight of 3,400 lbs, I never squatted that bad.
1969 Ford F-250 Ranger Special. My boys found it, want to build it, and named it "Grandpa".
I’m actually on the curb with the rear. The picture is deceiving. Pin weight came in less than 2500 lbs using a empty truck weight. With trailer connected weighed in at 10500 (empty weight just over 8K)on the truck and 11500 on the trailer axles. There was also a split bucket in the front of the trailer. The tractor is quite a bit heavier than I was expecting with the rim guard ballast in the tires but still within the limits of the dump.
North Cascades Hwy 20 in WA.
great looking truck, what suspension n tire size you running.
Stock suspension with added Loadlifter 5000 airbags (at 60psi in the pic) Nitto Ridge Grappler 295/65R20 for tires (34.5x11.5x20). Combine that with the Reese 20k Goosebox and it rides like a damn dream pulling 14k all day long.
Did you find that the 20's make towing with the 5ver seem much more stable?
