Rounded values to the nearest 10 lb also apply to the maximum load and trailer weight values. The payload value is the subtraction of GVWR with the base weight. SAE J2807 is the reference standard for calculating vehicle trailer weights and trailer weight ratings. Here the passenger weight is set at 300 lb. Meanwhile, more than 33% of sales content options will be weighted options.
If option weights are not included, then for a Class IV receiver hitch, it is 3.9 lb, which will be the trailer equipment’s weight. For a TWR value equal to or less than 5,000 lb, the trailer hitch is 10 lb. But if the TWR is more than 5000 lb, then the trailer hitch value is 65 lb.
In addition, trailer weight rating and payload are also mutually exclusive. Remember not to exceed the truck’s GCWR, GVWR, and GAWR. You can specify the recommended tongue weight for conventional hitches as 10% of the trailer’s gross weight. As a guide, 1275 lb is the maximum tongue weight limit for a Class IV hitch receiver, and the recommended weight distribution hitch is only for trailers over 5,000 lb.
