Heavy Duty Pintle Hitch?
Hey Guys:

I just bought a 9 ton tandem dual axle Trail King trailer, which is a pintle hitch. The next truck I'm going to buy in a few months will be a one ton dually, but all I see for towing is the class 4 and 5 frame type hitch receivers with the 2" opening. They are rated for less than 10,000#. I tow farm equipment and the trailer weigh's 6000# empty. Are their any better pintle hitch setups for a pickup that will tow ~30,000#?

Thanks,

John
