I would suggest that you not unload the tongue too much, you will wind 
up w/ a whipsawing rig that could put you in the weeds when going 
downhill or in a cross-wind.  I've driven a rig that was overloaded and 
it was no fun.  Had the pucker string tight the whole distance.  You 
might give it a try before you take off, also you could put some of the 
load in the back of the Suburb, reducing the weight of the trailer.
