Reply:On the tongue? Bobcat looks like 530lbs.  That's a lot of tongue weight for an empty trailer...Last edited by Boostinjdm; 09-24-2009 at 11:17 PM.My name's not Jim....
Reply:You should try it! There are ways to counter the extra weight if it poses a problem. You can add airbags to the truck. They make all sorts of helper springs, you can also add a weight distributing hitch. Those are very capable of leveling out heavy trailers, but you won't know until you load it up! I will say to watch for turning clearance with the truck bumper, the pinch point should not endanger the Bobcat because the day may come when you back up a bit too much in a turn and pinch something.
