[QUOTE="Patman, post: 469977, member: 16962"] The hitch is being asked to do a different job with the trailer vs. the carrier so while the actual weight applied to the tongue of the hitch might be the same the forces are going to be significantly different in a cantilevered 500# vs. a direct load of 500#, so while in a pure sense of the term "tongue weight" my description may have been a bit off in a laymans dictionary I think the point was made, perhaps "tongue force" or something might have been a better term. Also most specifications for tongue weight are made with a specific distance in mind and I doubt 40" is within that spec. [/QUOTE]
