Toy hauler is your answer. No way should you hang the weight of a HD of the back of a 5er. The frames are not designed for that much weight.

Some frames can carry the load but they are few. New Horizons has no problem carrying it with their 18" frames and my Mobile Suites with a 16" frame has had no problems with over 40K miles on it.
Correction, DRV frames are 15". Two 2x6 and one 2x3 tubes stacked add up to 15".
I tow a Kendon two bike trailer behind my DRV. I would never give up my rear window!!!
Look carefully at the DRV stacked frame. They are NOT a full 15" frame through the entire length. The 2 x 3 section to give the total 15" height is only in the wheel attachment area. It also does not extend the 12" section all the way to the rear/

Here is my 39TKSB3 on the production line.
Correction again, first pic shows ALL 3 tubes to the end! Third pic the 3" tube shown runs the full length.
MORryde did add another shorter 3" tube below the full length bottom 3" tube when they raised the RV to run level.
