all points are relevant got your moneys worth for 2 cents looks like 10 pounds to me lolHeres my 2 cents worth, for what its worth, which is not much. I see it this way, right or wrong, I think its pretty irrelevant, how much or little the rear suspension drops. The thing that matter most is how much weight is taken off the front axle. You may have rock hard springs that drop zero with 350kgs on the ball, but you cant alter the fact that because the tow ball is x mm away from rear axle, the pivot motion is taking x amount of weight off the front axle. In 99.9% of driving this may not be an issue, but that one time when you know what hits the fan, the handling of tow rig may not be up to how you expect. My thoughts are instead of measuring spring drop, measure before and after axle weights. This is only my opinion and I may get shot down in flames, but Im English and have thick skin.
OH... We won't hold that against youbut Im English and have thick skin.
Makes sense to me, that's why I got a WDH. I've been in a car that didn't take a bend cause the front end had no grip, not a good feeling.Heres my 2 cents worth, for what its worth, which is not much.
