I am about to purchase a 97 f-350 w/ 7.3 ps diesel. Never had one before. I am buying to replace my 88 chev with a 454 v8 gas. Can anyone tell me what the towing capacity of the 97 truck is? I am wanting to tow my 9000Lb 5th wheel and possibly anothe 3000+lb trailer in tandem. Will the 7.3 handle the load?
Thanks in advance.

The 97 can handle the load. Both of my 97's could haul that kind of load. Bobcat on trailer about 10,000 lbs. If this is an automatic the addition of tranny cooler and trans temp gauge is a must for the health of the e4od tranny. Along with trailer brake controler of course.
