When you move that weight to the very back of your truck you will need a good sway control IMO. Yes, the dually will provide a lot of "stop" power for sway, but if you get a long trailer without sway control it WILL start swaying and depending on the circumstances it WILL start pulling your truck. My thought is to just get a good WDH with good sway control and go down the road and not worry about where the breaking point is.
Ah, remember me? You helped me a lot picking out the proper truck to tow my 20' 6,000 lb 18RS Outback trailer with Ram 1500 SLT Quad Cab 4x4
5.7L V8 Hemi. I'm going to make a separate post on what I need.
