Yeah, but the front-to-rear weight ratio is no where near even to begin
with. If anything, a little weight behind the rear axle will help even out
the ratio. I understand what you guys are suggesting about lifting the
front of the truck, but what you propose as an alternative also requires 2
to 3 times as much weight in the bed. I'm trying to keep the weight down
as winters don't get too bad here, and most of the winter it will be
relatively clear on the roads. The weight is just for those few big storms
we'll get.
>>>>>>>>>>

I have it on good authority that the best performance can be obtained by adding
a sleight bit of weight just aft of the engine..............

It's called a transfer case! :-)

(sorry! ...I'll be good now :-)
