By the time you upgrade a bunch of stuff, it would be cheaper to sell and buy a 3/4 ton and it will do a better job int he long run compared to a cobbled together system. And don't forget the things that will break sooner because they are being over stressed.
On a side note: I have come across a few 30-35' 5th wheels towed by full semi-tractors, so yes, you can go overkill.
You might want to go to the HDT thread on the Escapee forum and get a little insight on why some prefer to tow with a TRUCK, just saying.

I'm talking full interstate semi-tractors, not the medium duty trucks. And they weren't pulling monster overbuilt 5ers, just your standard run of the mill variety.
I have no doubt, they tow very well but it's clearly overkill.
