I have UCONNECT_UAQ_8.4_QR40.1_MY18-21 found it on the Pacifica forum. ill try to get the link. the only question i have is, I have the nav 8.4, does that have different firmware? on https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2023/MC-10242779-9999.pdf it states all 8.4 use QR40.1

True, I'm just over 100hours on the clock this week so getting numbers mixed 🤣

That payload rating actually does include 300 lb for one driver, one passenger. Seated in the front row, and all fluids full.

you can get an adapter for 9005/9006 that should be the correct socket. https://www.amazon.com/iJDMTOY-Adapter-Headlights-Retrofit-Installing/dp/B01HNAT6SQ/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=9005+male+adapter&qid=1625923566&s=automotive&sr=1-5

Hmm, Are you wanting to connect into the factory fog light harness? or install wires from the BCM?

These might help :D

I was going to mention this as well. or by completely skewing TW... 6% TW on a boat? you can tell that towable companies have been playing the same "pick a number" as the truck industry. Most of the trims above the tradesman and bighorn are not a truck "by the sticker" Id probably be fine with...

as Finn5033 and Willwork4truck mentioned, experience is key, Growing up in the mountains of Colorado I learned to respect weather, road conditions, hairpins, and grades. I started with trailers on a farm at 9 years old towing 1 ton trailers with a 4 wheeler to get hay to cattle up in high...

Just a thought... airstreams were designed to tow by a family sedan in the 60's I'm sure those cars had more payload than your truck :ROFLMAO: you should do what you feel comfortable with, me personally, its a few lbs... in the event there is a mishap, +/- 100lbs will probably not be a factor...

I am planning on going with either 35% or 50% linear spring. after watching this video, and his explanations, I think its time. I still need to get to a scale to see my unloaded weight though to see if the 35% or 50% is a better fit for me, not sure if the 70% will just make it feel like a 2500...

im going to rebrand mine to a .85 ton or a 17/20 ton truck :LOL:

another note to think about is your spare... if your running near max payload, that ~110T spare is gonna be hurting if you have to use it.

One thought in regards to tire's limiting the payload; I inspected my setup, with the Nexen Roadian HTX RH5 275/55R20 SL the payload/pressure chart is: 29psi - 2121lbs 32psi - 2293lbs 35psi - 2465lbs 36psi - 2535lbs with an axle rating of 3900lbs front and 4100lbs rear, the tires could be at...

The battery alone is 30lbs, then you have the motor/generator and controls systems. in total its about 100lbs for that.
