Weight limits August 28, 2022, 12:44:20 pm The way I read this chart there is about 5,500 pounds allowable for a tow vehicle and my 27' MB. Provided the hitch is strengthend of course.Am I reading this correctly?

These LDs have really good carrying capacity.There was a thread with photos awhile back regarding how the LD factory bolted on the receiver. I can see how the bolts and bolt holes could eventually wear. We are towing a Suby which weighs about 3,500# so I'm thinking about getting it welded on.jor 1 Likes
