SHARP looking toys, but I'd really switch over to EoH brakes with that setup.
It's going to give you much better braking in an emergency, will give you braking in reverse if you actually launch it at the ramp with the RV, AND it will allow you shorten your setup by 8" to a foot.

BTW: Life you're doing it right!

I was looking hard for a Sportchasis for the beaker, but with GM raising the Conventional capacity to 20k for 2016, I can just squeak by. Heck, my 06 handled the boat just fine, I was just sweating the potential liability issues. Here is a scale ticket from last season. 1/2 tanks, full water, and gear. She's a heavy lady!

So your drive axle is half the weight of the steering axle?!!! And only 1/6 the weight of your trailer axles?!!! Something is set very wrong with the weight dist of your rig. You could get into a tail-wagging jack-knife situation very easy with only 3,000 pounds on the drive axle.

I was wondering when someone would catch that

They somehow swapped the drive and steer on the print out...or Im thinking I may have had the drive axle half and half on the gap between the front and center pads to get the trailer on the scale.
