A one of a kind analysis of the actual weight distribution of tongue weights on the tow vehicle and the trailer due to the use of weight distribution hitches. These were weights as measured for car trailer combinations as they were in use on the highways. Each wheel was weighed while the unit was connected and again when the hitch was disconnected. The tongue weight was also taken when disconnected. The complete distribution was obtained in this manner.
