Question 1997 Fleetwood Savanna 31G​

I am looking for the weight specifications for my 1997 Fleetwood Savanna 31G trailer. The details on the plate on the tongue have completely washed off and I don’t have a manual. The dealer can’t help me and I can’t find any information on the Internet. Can anyone help me?

Have it weighed!
The hubs tell a story!

Yes, that’s the obvious solution, but for various reasons, not feasible at the moment.

 

[Kevin D Pem]

This is the formula!

5 lug hubs 3500lbs axel
6 lug 5000lbs axel
8 lug??? Will have to look it up.

Axel capacity is suspended weight.

Number of axles times axel capacity plus (pull trailer) 1/10th axel capacities.

Fifth wheel or gooseneck ad another 5%

That gives you GVWR.

GVWR minus empty (dry) weight gives you capacity for water, gas, and other supplies.
