[QUOTE="93Cobra#2771, post: 16887481, member: 4599"] What is the CCC (cargo carrying capacity) on the BRaptor? Would be a yellow sticker likely in the driver's door. That is almost always the limiting factor on smaller tow vehicles. The dry weight on the trailer you chose (4919# unloaded from the web) is already over the tow rating on the BRaptor. Trailer loaded with even a minimum of "stuff" puts it at least 5500#. 15% of that is tongue weight (825#). I'm betting by the time you load the BRaptor with whatever other stuff, plus a couple of passengers, you will be well over your cargo carry capacity (1100# or less is my guess). That is why the ride left some to be desired. Not trying to be the tow police, just pointing out why the ride was likely not great. I'm guessing you had some amount of porpoising. *I haul heavy with my 11 F150, and am over my ratings as well. Adjust the hitch spring bars so that the front fender height on the BRaptor is the same hooked as unhooked. Then you can tweak from there one way or another to adjust ride characteristics. [/QUOTE]
