The trailer had arrived at the dealer from the factory barely an hour before we took that photo yesterday. I hitched it up to my old basic W/D hitch I had from an old Kit Companion. We left off the W/D bars so it would be easier to weight the trailer at the State Police scales. Actually, we had to make a 2nd trips to the scales last night because I forgot the techs had tested the FW system and left the tanks partially filled. The Fox FW tank sure drains slowly out of a 1/2 line; our Beaver had a 1.5" FW drain valve. Goosh!
We installed the Hensley today and re-weighed the rig again today with a couple of W/D bar settings. Only now I remember that we were going to do separate side weights too and forgot.
Even with the W/D bars tensioned, the K2500HD Chevy sags more than our '04 Ford F350 6.0 PutterStrokeDiesel, but it runs so much better!
Our Hensley draw bar has a 2" lift, but the front of the trailer is still down a bit much. I'll have to run the rear of the truck on 2" of lumber and see if a 4" draw bar is too much or not. Or, we'll modify the rear suspension with air bags or MOR/ryde.
Yesterday, the tongue weight of the empty trailer was 1210#. Today with the Hensley mounted on the empty trailer the tongue weight bumped up to 1380#, not counting the draw bar. That drops to 1200# with the W/D bars tensioned, including the draw bar.

I had a NASH product. It was a great unit other than a bad slide seal (and I was a rookie with slideouts then) I see you have slide toppers though so I think you will have many many years of trouble free usage. It sure looks nice on the outside. CONGRATS and have lots of fun. TIM
