Looks like you should scale the truck, fiver and each axle if you can.....
Please provide a link to a law in any state (or even federal) that says if the OP , driving a
non-commercial vehicle, exceeds his rated load capacity of 2100 pounds he will be running "illegal. "
You're splitting hairs. 2-300 pounds extra is not going to break anything. His truck can handle the pin weight without issues. I'd install air bags on the rear and hit the road.
