Any good welding shop will know what to do once they crawl under. On that short a MH the frame may not need anything. Since you are not putting any weight on the hitch a V brace from the frame to the center of your current hitch is all that's needed to increase it for towing 3800lbs.
What are you going to do for brakes on your car?
I've never heard of a V brace. I did a quick google search and it didn't help much. Is this V brace something which would be welded on the RV chasis from the frame to the hitch? Is it something you buy or is it custom made?
I didn't mention earlier, but I plan to tow with all four wheels on the road. As far as car brakes, I will need to add something for this but I haven't researched yet. Is there something in the round connector (near the hitch) which has a signal for brakes? I know somehow I need to get a brake signal from the RV to the vehicle being towed.
Thanks.
