I have a 2002 Winnebago 32V with the F53 chassis and the ford v-10 engine. Max towing weight is 5000# but I want to tow my 6400# toyhauler. I know I would have to get a 10,000# receiver installed but what else should I do?
simply changing out the hitch is probably not enough. you may need to make structural changes to your MH but even that doesn't take into account the ability of the engine and tranny to pull that load. i'm not smart enough to know the precise answer but I am smart enough to seek out the opinion of a professional that has no interest in the answer. i'd make a call to Winnebago customer service and see what the engineers there have to say. I would not seek the advice of someone who wants to sell me a Class IV hitch.
