Default Weight: front and rear

Anyone who has weighed their truck. You wouldn't happen to know the weight distribution, would you?

****, it has got to be like what.... 70% front, 30% rear. possibly even more up front?

Need opinions or facts. Help.

I agree front is pushing more weight but no idea on the distribution. Either 70/30 or 60/40 seems like a few good estimates.

I wanted to have mine scaled but it costs $200 bucks so I took a wild guess and shifted weight over the right rear.

Here's the info for Gerald Thomas, Amy's dad. sthomas1@gt.rr.com

I wanted to bring this back up. Still interested in the weight front to rear. I couldn't get ahold of Amy's pops.

Any ideas on what I can do to find the weight ratio front to rear of our trucks?
