towing with a class c
Howdy I just bought a 1997 forest river sun seeker 2300 with 18,000 miles and the ford v10 on the e350 chassis The hitch is rated at 3500 and I'm having trouble finding any others rated for more...

Question: can safely beef up the frame and hitch to haul a 18 foot flat bed car hauler with my jeep wrangler? Total weight around 6000\7000 pounds with tongue weight around 500, if so, how?
Thanks!
Beef up the frame? Sure.... but what about the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension...etc? You think all of that would handle the increased weight plus the 7000 lb trailer/jeep with a large tongue weight?
Probably your jeep is 4-down towable...if not, make it so or trade it for another that is. Jeeps are probably the most common 4-down towable you'll see on the road today.'
