[QUOTE="Bebop, post: 755816, member: 5925"] It is interresting to note that you how you want a 10k trailer but also want to tow with a half ton. IMO You removed a total of 450lbs by making this trailer way less useful. On top of that any new half ton will tow 6871 + 500lbs no problem. A lot of them are rated to tow 10k. Plus, keeping the weight on the trailer vs in the bed is a million times better in terms of weight distribution especially if you're towing with a lighter truck. At the end of the day, if you're trying to save weight, I'd go to a smaller duty 7000lbs trailer that will be way lighter than that heavy Moritz and if you're concerned about durability, you could still upgrade the axles only to 10k in order to get the big bearings and brakes.
