load is within the specified GVWR. If so, weight must be
shifted from front to rear, or rear to front, as appropriate

heavier items down low and be sure that the weight is
distributed equally. Stow all loose items securely before
driving.
Improper weight distributions can have an adverse affect
on the way your vehicle steers and handles, and the way
the brakes operate.
