What is the 80/20 rule in towing?
The 80/20 rule in towing refers to safe weight distribution: roughly 80% of a trailer's load weight should sit in front of the axle and about 20% behind it, keeping enough tongue weight for stable, sway-free towing. Our operators follow proper load-balancing and tie-down guidelines on every tow to protect your vehicle.
