I'd be looking for a bit more weight on the tow ball, somwhere between 60 and 70 kgs. If you go too light by putting more weight in the rear of the caravan you will find the rear of the car trying to lift. The caravan should ride either level or slightly nose down but never nose up. It is recommended that the nose weight is 7% of the caravan's ALW, usually between 50 and 80 kgs. :lol: Andy.
