I buy used trucks, RVs and hitches. I've been using the same $150 15k used drawtite 4 way rocker hitch for 20 years and 3 different trucks. I had a 97ctd but it was 3/4T srw. My 3.54 axle ratio was rated to tow 10500 and the 4.10 axle went up to 12500 towing. Hopefully you have the 4.10 in that dually
I don't know the tow caps for the dually. It wouldn't be too hard to install your own hitch on that 97 cuz it has a C channel frame. I've been looking for another used hitch for my latest tow vehicle project (2012 CCLB CTD auto) but I want a hitch with a capacity that matches this truck. I've seen what I want for $350 w/o the rails but I don't used them anyway. Craig
My truck is a beast, Not sure about my gear ratio?
But my 1st gear in my 5 Speed manual trans is really low!
& I've got a Dana 80 rearend being the manual trans.
