I checked the tech folder and did a search but came up empty. I have a 2004 F-250 V-10/3.73 limited slip/4x4/Automatic. What is the max rating for 5th wheel/gooseneck towing? The 5th wheel I currently own is 9800 lbs. and my truck pulls it like it's not even there.

 

Max 5th wheel weight is differs depending on cab style...

'04 F-250 4X4 V-10 3.73 AUTO...

Regular Cab - 10,800 lbs.
Super Cab - 10,400 lbs.
Crew Cab - 10,200 lbs.

Keep in mind those are MAX 5th wheel weights. To determine your actual capacity you would have to take the weight of your truck (loaded for travel) and subtract that from the GCWR of the truck which is 17,000 lbs in your case.

My guess is you are probably pretty close to GCWR with your set-up.

 

this is for 2004 www.fleet.ford.com/showroom/rv_trailer_towing/2004/2004RVTrailer_F250_350.pdf

 

i am sure you could tow more than that. i tow 10,000lbs with my 5.4 with 4.10 auto. i don't have any problems.

 

Thanks for the response's.
