comparing axle locations

I know,I know, the engineers have already designed the various TDs
in regard to axle placement. But, it seems to me that there's a big difference in tongue weights in regards to the different designs. ie 43" from rear on a trailer for two as opposed to 29" on a kenskill. I would think the kenskill would have a heavier tongue weight than the t4two.
That would make a choice of tow vehicle rating mighty important.
Just a thought :thinking:

You know that's a thought...

Andrew,

Do you have a list of all the teardrops in your library, with tongue weights?

Just wondered!
