I don't think your Bounder gasser can tow anywhere near enough to tow that type of setup. Are you sure you don't have a 5K limit?
My Bounder has the back frame channel tubes added for strength, tubes go in 4 ft from back and welded to factory frame, the hitch has been welded to the added frame, rear air bags and Banks Power system, this was setup by last owner because I think he towed a race car, factory hitch was 5000 lbs, not sure where its at now but at least 6500 lbs.
Also My Jeep weights 3600 lbs, boat/motor/trailer weights 450 lbs, {inflatable boat}, that is 4050 lbs total NOT including the double deck trailer.
Also note a trailer should tow easier than my 4 all terrain tires on Jeep that I flat tow, hopefully I can get or make a small double deck trailer that weights under 1500 lbs.
