Terminology & Abbreviations
Tongue Weight:
The downward load exerted on the tow point of the vehicle by the trailer. (Coupling Mass)
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight): The total mass of the trailer and cargo
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating): Maximum rated total mass of trailer and cargo.
GCWR (Gross Combination Weight Rating): This is the total allowable combined mass of tow vehicle and trailer as
determined by the tow vehicle manufacturer.
Camber: Camber angle is the measure in degrees of the difference between the wheel’s vertical alignment
perpendicular to the surface. If a wheel is perfectly perpendicular to the surface, its camber would be 0 degrees.
Camber is described as negative when the top of the tire begins to tilt inward towards the chassis rail.
Your MDC trailer should be 0-0.5 degrees negative camber.
Toe In/out:
Negative toe, or toe out, is the front of the wheel pointing away from the centerline of the vehicle. Positive
toe, or toe in, is the front of the wheel pointing towards the centerline of the vehicle. Toe can be measured in linear units,
at the front or rear of the tire, or as an angular deflection. In the case of MDC products, the “toe in”
is measured in degrees or 64th’s of an inch at the front of the tire from the chassis rail.
Your MDC trailer should have toe in set at 3/64” to 5/64” over the diameter of the tire.
