Calculate pin weight using 15% for TT or 23% for a fiver and if it's below the payload you should be good (providing you're not trying to take a cord of wood with you).

LOL, well back in the day, a half ton would be lucky to have a 1,000# payload. Heck if we went by payload our 2016 Tam DRW would be a Duce and a half! Lets see who understands that terminology.
