Should the Tow Vehicle Be Loaded When Setting Up Fastway e2 Weight Distribution
Question:
I just purchased this WDH and have a setup question. I watched a number of videos and one thing Ive seen in some is they tell you to load your truck with all the gear before getting started. Loading the rv makes since but if I load my truck before taking measurements then the front will be higher than normal ride height. Shouldnt I take measurements on the truck when unloaded and then load it when coupling for setup?

When setting up your Fastway e2 Weight Distribution w/ 2-Point Sway Control # FA92-00-0800 both the tow vehicle and trailer should be loaded just like they would be when you're traveling. This is can be found in the installation instructions under Step 1 - Getting Things Ready. This includes full propane tanks, fresh water tanks, and any other cargo (passengers & gear) the tow vehicle or trailer will carry, including ATVs for toy haulers.
I have attached the written instructions for your reference.
