Advice on a Class C for sale. Looking at it today.

I am going to look at a 2003 McKenzie Rogue (Monaco) Class C with 2 slides and 31k miles today. It's listed as $27k OBO. It has heated holding tanks and air ride suspension. New tires two years ago....

The engine can handle the 5000lbs, but the frame extensions probably can't. You should be able to find a welder than can make the frame extensions sturdier to handle the extra weight. Once the frame is sturdy enough to handle the load, you should be good to go.

If I reinforce the frame extensions, would I be able to use the existing 3500lb hitch or would I need to replace it with a 5000lb hitch? Not sure the difference in the different capacity hitches.
