Wow! That's good info, Chap! Thanks. I'm going to spend some time digesting that. But the first thing I notice is the 220 pound drop in front axle load, and the 700 pound increase in rear axle load, if a WDH is not used.

It certainly illustrates the principle of the thing, especially since you have a rather hefty and rather long tow vehicle. The effect would certainly be worse on a shorter, lighter vehicle.
