Re: Weight Distribution Hitch

Down the line I expect to tow something. I can get all the info I need as to "rated" but once I fill it up how do I find out how the weight is distributed? How to measure tongue weight? My bathroom scales don't go that high. I don't intend to overload so am prepared to make realistic estimates. ie., 320 pounds in the front seats, 400 pounds in the bed etc. But actual tongue weight? And distribution? I have done a fair bit of totally blind ignorant towing just eyeballing and gut feeling and have been luckey so far. I am past the point of ignorant luck and want to do it right this time around. Is there a simple Towing 101 manual around?
