DRW Tire Capacity Rear Axel on my truck is 11,340
Without trailer and lightly loaded I have 1,440 available
With more load in the TC, and 1000# tongue weight I am now very close to rated capacity.
To get a 1000# tongue weight on the hitch the trailer would need to weigh over 6,000 lbs. so with a extension and the leveraged loading you will also need a Superhitch or something equal to it added to your truck as well.
Pretty expensive to get seven 19.5 rims and tires for your truck. Cost will be around $900 per wheel to get them installed and you will need to determine where to have the spare tire stored.
This is where the chassis cab version of the F-450 or a F-550 starts to look attractive.
