Can I haul a 5th wheel with a 07 Super Crew 4X4
Everything I've read here & other places says no but I still have to ask.
I have a 2007 F-150 Super Crew XLT 4X4, 3.73 LS rear end, stock p255 / 70R17 tires, Trailer Tow Package, with a 6 1/2' bed. Stock no lift or after market work at all.
The weight rating's keep the legal 5th wheel to be towed rediculously small IMO, I would like a 27' 5th wheel but weight ratings won't allow it.
I know I need to have air bags installed, new tires with a higher load rating, a 5th wheel hitch installed, & a Electric Brake controller.
Do I need a sliding 5th wheel hitch with the 6 1/2' bed??
I would still need everything mentioned above except the 5th wheel hitch if I went with a bumper pull trailer.
Is it worth it to pay for the hitch just to tow a small 5th wheel, or should I just get a regular bumper pull trailer ???
Thanks Lee
