Im hoping not to hear bad news, but here it goes....
Im currently in the process of purchasing a travel trailer from a private party. The issue I am realizing is that when I look at the trailer sticker, I'm thinking the hitch weight will be more than my max tongue rating.
Please someone tell me that with a weight distribution hitch, I can still pull this off. I've already placed a deposit and would hate to back out of this deal. I have attached the sticker on my truck and the sticker on the side of the trailer. When I google the specs of the trailer, it says the hitch weight is 955 pounds.
My specs:
2024 GMC Sierra Elevation w/ 3.0 Duramax. 6" inch BDS Lift with 35" tires and upgraded Eibach shocks. My sticker rating for max tongue weight is 880 pounds.
Trailer specs:
2021 Keystone Springdale 295BH
GVWR: 9710
