Tires
.Do not tow a trailer while using a
compact spare tire on the vehicle.
.Tires must be properly inflated to support
loads while towing a trailer. SeeTires
0 339 for instructions on proper tire
inflation.
Fifth-Wheel and Gooseneck Trailering
Fifth-wheel and gooseneck trailers can be
used with many pickup models. These
trailers place a larger percentage of the
weight (kingpin weight) on the tow vehicle
than conventional trailers. Make sure this
weight does not cause the vehicle to exceed
Gross Axle Weight Rating (GAWR) or Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). Fifth-wheel
or gooseneck kingpin weight should be 15 –
25% of the trailer weight up to the maximum amount specified on the Trailering
Information Label. See
“Trailer Weight"
under Trailer Towing 0274.
The hitch should be in the pickup bed so
that its centerline is over or near the rear
axle. Take care that it is not so far forward
that it will contact the back of the cab in
sharp turns. This is especially important for
short box pickups. Trailer pin box extensions
and sliding fifth-wheel hitch assemblies may
be used. There should be at least 15 cm
(6 in) of clearance between the top of the
pickup box and the bottom of the trailer
shelf that extends over the box.
Attach the hitch to the tow vehicle frame
rails. Do not use the pickup box for support.
Two Inch Adapter Sleeve and
Retainer Pin
The 2500/3500 series vehicles are equipped
with a 2-1/2” square receiver. An adapter is
provided to allow the use of a 2” draw bar,
along with a hitch retainer pin, and
retainer clip.
Safety Chains
Always attach safety chains between the
vehicle and the trailer. Instructions about
safety chains may be provided by the hitch
manufacturer or by the trailer manufacturer.
If the trailer being towed weighs up to
2 271 kg (5,000 lb) with a factory-installed
step bumper, safety chains may be attached
