Towing F150

May or may not be buying a new F150 4x4 this week end.
I've put new tow base plates etc on three vehicles at CW now and want to save some money this time.
What have you Folks had to spend on Roadmaster base plate and new air brake set up?
I can't physically do it myself now of I could save bunch.

    What is the weight limit on your TV (I guess a MH) and weight of the new F150?

    10,000 lb new f150s are in the 5200- 5500 lb are since change to aluminum so I'm told.
  • Not roadmaster but will give an idea. I was quoted $300 for Demco base plates and $270 for installation. That did not include any light or brake wiring.
