here is the update
old trailer 24 foot tag with wd hitch, went over scales at 17700 total weight (truck and trailer). towed all the way to nashville tn, there are grades in kentucky and tn.
traded in old trailer for new 40 foot gooseneck, moved all equipment and car over to new trailer in parking lot at tn state fairgrounds. towed all the way back home to detroit mi. havn't weighed new trailer combo yet. but i can say the goose neck towed better than the tag, fuel milage even went up. used to tow at 70-75, but know i tow at 60-65 can go 70-75 but dont want push truck that hard till i get weighed, the curb weight of the new trailer is supposed to be 3500 pounds heavier than the tag, the gooseneck is also 1.5 feet taller.
i do plan on makin it a dually in the winter for protection against rolling over with a flat on th truck
