How will my truck handle these two 5th wheels?

Bummer. If you choose to do go 5er route: You'll be 1000-1500 pounds over GVWR with 2k-ish dry 5er. You'll be close on rear axle rating. You will want to increase rear suspension spring rate (air bags, overload springs, timbrens, etc).


OK, hashed enough. But lots of people this. Over GVWR, near GAWR and tire load on the rear. They mostly seem happy!
