Anyone towing 5th wheels with 1/2 ton?
This is an inquiry as I'm a little unsure of the weight I can pull with my truck. This isn't a stock truck, so I'm not sure what the best way to go about this is.
The truck has: 406 sb with 4-core rad & HF water pump power disk front/drum rear air ride front bags, firestone towing rear bags TH350 with 3000 stall The truck would need to be wired for trailer brakes and I would install a variable controller. From reading past threads, it looks like the 12-bolt in the 1/2tons is a limiting factor. Does putting the weight over the wheels allow for heavier pulling? I am looking at a few trailers with max gross between 8000-10000lbs. Is this even feasible? Thanks for the help.
