The only time I've seen a E-450 based "C" with the ability to tow more than 5000 pounds was a custom "C" maker which offered to do exactly as above -- have a hitch (might need to be custom fabbed) directly bolted onto the main frame of the E-450 (not the frame extensions.) I think that would get one 7500-10k of tow rating... but you are still limited by RAWR (the further away the hitch is, the more the de-rating) and the GCVWR. The "C" that had this higher weight capability was a short model (24 feet) as well. I doubt this could be done with a 30 footer or longer... but I could be wrong.
