You shouldn't have a problem with front axle, here is a heavier 5er with B&W hitch set about 2 inches in front of the axle. Unloaded weight 4740 and loaded weight 5000 and here is the detail weighting of a 310GK https://www.mygrandrv.com/fo...-Scale-Weights

Thank you everyone for the helpful examples and comments. At this point I feel like I have a good shot at keeping both the front axle under GAWR and the overall vehicle under the listed GVWR as originally intended.

Our steer axle weight did not change either. 5380 with & w/o the trailer. 3860 on the Curt 25 hitch.

What bothers me about this is it really isn't consistent with what I would expect based on statics. The 3100# pin load is 2" in front of the rear axle (which I am imagining as the fulcrum). An upward force of only 44 lbs at the front axle (143" away) is all that is needed to balance that torque. Yet it looks like the front axle is supplying 260 pounds.

I think what he might be talking about is on GMC there bearing in the rear end that has the same part number except of the dash number at the end. The parts guy at GMC showed me the example with both bearings having the same part number but one said 2500 and the other said 2500/3500 and but one had had -7 and other had a -9 on the end of the part number. Parts manual didn't list the dash number but to order you required to put in the vin.

I have a 2016 F-250 6.7L CCSB, 4x4 Lariat, Ultimate package, chrome package, mud flaps, upfitter switches, homelink. Pretty similar to yours, but not exact. I weighed my truck prior to installing the Anderson Ultimate hitch, then again with hitch and trailer connected.
Front axle GAWR 5100 Empty weight 4860 weight with trailer 4880
Rear axle GAWR 6100 Empty weight 3160 weight with trailer 5240
Not the same trailer, buy a very minimal increase of the front axle weight.
perhaps this information will help you a bit.
The hitch is installed with the ball located behind the rear axle, and it gives me plenty of room for tight turns.
