how do you measure tongue weight on a trailer

The tongue weight on a trailer can simply be measured by always placing the trailer tongue 1 foot from the pipe on the support brick. Then you will want to simply, multiply the reading on the scale by the total distance between the 2 support pipes. Then, simply use a brick that is the same thickness as the scale so that the 2 x 4 is level when you weigh your trailer. Don't forget to check out a hitch bike rack or cargo carrier..
