Thought you guys might enjoy this.
I made an interactive spreadsheet to see for myself what effect moving weight around in the car changes front and rear bias.

A quick explanation of how it works.
Fill in the 3 bright yellow squares with your present front axle weight, rear axle weight and wheelbase. The spreadsheet will fill in the rest.
DFA and DRA are
Distance from
Font
Axle and
Distance from
Rear
Axle.
Any distance "inside" the wheelbase is a negative number.
Here is a crude diagram to help explain. Graphics guys be nice, this is done in MS paint, lol.

#1 is removing the a/c compressor
#2 is swapping steel bumper for aluminum
#3 is removing battery from front of the car
#4 installing battery back of the truck
#5 installing same battery on rear floor for comparison
Feel free to download the spreadsheet and play around with it. Hopefully it will make sense.
