Hi -
Getting some conflicting advice, so figured this was a good place to ask. I want to trailer my 100 to CO on an aluminum trailer with tandem 3500lb axles. New 6ply tires.
I'm hearing that I'm "no problem" to "you should be fine, but you're getting close to the max".....with regard to the 100 being too heavy or not for the trailer.
I've got bumpers, sliders and winch, so figure I'm probably getting close to 5500 lbs for the rig alone. I've been told by some you don't take trailer weight into the equation (huh?) and by some you do (the guy trying to sell me a new trailer), and tongue weight will reduce the axle load.
Advice?
John
