Quick question regarding TW: looking at 4h Logan Razor (which will be custom built with extra height and bigger stalls) and of the website Logan lsit TW at 1.4K lbs for an empty weight of 5.2K lbs: so about 27%.Now with the trailer fully loaded (and about 700lbs additions for the height and 32" of length, sounds about right?)we could load the trailer up to 12K lbs (axles are rated at 6K, maybe upgrade axles?) which would give me a 3.2K lbs TW (@27%): so should i still use the same 27% TW ratio, or since more weight is going to be in the back the TW % will decrease?Thanks

Two 6000 Lb axles do NOT mean you can load to their limit, because many horse trailers will have periods where the load is NOT distributed perfectly across the axles and tires themselves also provide their own set of limitations...
