im getting ready to buy a freedom express 301blds but found out that the hitch weight is 950#'s and my truck,f-250 diesel srw,is only rated for 850#'s...is it too much over or will it be ok
Where did you get the 850 pound number from? What year truck do you have? Can you tell if it is OEM or aftermarket (U-Haul, Curt, Reese, etc? Is there a sticker like this one with possibly two sets of weights?
My guess is your truck is older, has an aftermarket class 3/4 receiver on it. You should be able to replace that for about $200 with something more capable, along the lines of what that TT needs maybe 1200 pounds with a WDH.
