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
That's all well and good. BUT, what about two of the other parts of the total equation, which are the TRANSMISSION and the BRAKES? Just beefing up the frame will not do one thing to increase the towing capability of the transmission or the stopping power of the brakes. JMHO, but it seems to me that your best option is to purchase a coach which is capable of handling the load you want to haul. Perhaps a DP with a 10000 pound towing capacity.
