It's safer to load it backwards, but to balance the tractor your front wheels are going to be almost off the trailer, depending on the length. I always load them front end first. The rears are not hard to move in, move them in until almost on the axle housing. Turn the wheel so that the clamp is either vertical or upside down, I seem to have better luck with the clamp vertical. I also use a hitch equalizer which distributes the weight between the trailer and the pickup. On my half ton it almost levels the truck. The statement about a 3 inch bumper drop is about right, with the equalizer it is less than that. Your trailer wt and tractor wt combined will be about 7000 lbs, more or less depending on wheel weights and fluid in the tires. If a 7000 lb GVW trailer, loaded tires will put you over that.
