pulling fifth wheel with f250 supercab 6.2L engine

[myersr]

I currently have a trailer with dry wt of under 4500# but want to get a new 5th wheel that shows dry weight of 7225#. I understand a fifth wheel pulls different than a trailer, but need some input from someone who knows. Any help would be great!

If you can handle approximately 1400 pounds of pin weight plus people and stuff in the truck, you’re good to go.

1. Get 16 inch rims and G rated tires
2. Get a long bed truck
3. Buy Diesel truck with a Exhaust Brake
4. Contact Transfer Flow in Chico ca. To replace your stock fuel with an auxlilary larger fuel tank. 60 gal or larger.

As WNYBob said, make sure your payload numbers are good and that you buy the right hitch. You didn't mention the brand/model of 5th wheel and what size bed the truck has so you may or may not need a slider hitch.

[WNYBob]

Like always, watch your payload numbers!

250 gasser would pull that with lots of of safety margin.
