Can you put a fifth wheel hitch in a Chevy stepside?
its not advised on a 1500 truck. it is possible but would put alot of strain on the truck pulling a 5th wheel trailer, potentially risking rear end and transmission failure because of the amount of weight and strain. if you were to do so you would need to back up the hitch/trailer with an aftermarket rear end and a strong transmission. it is possible on a 3/4 ton truck, you would have to invest in a sliding 5th wheel hitch to do so, and measure about 47 inches or so from the rear of the bed. consult in a professional installer before making any decisions.
A Fifth Wheel Truck As A Travel Vehicle?
Customized trucks equipped with a fifth wheel connection are perfect for towing travel trailers that would be too heavy for smaller trucks. The weight of the hitch is shifted onto the axle of the truck, allowing for greater towing capacity, ease in handling and backing and better control in bad road conditions. Many people find that it is easier to have a fifth wheel truck that allows them to detach their travel trailer, allowing them to use the truck as a pleasure vehicle once they have reached their destination. Fifth wheel trucks come with all of the features of regular pickup trucks, but allow for more towing options and are a great choice for travelers.
