Looking for any info on increasing the legal towed load capacity of a
800 series truck. Out of the box, it is 30,000 pounds. I'm guessing that
is due to the articulating pintle hitch that the Army wanted for towing
loads over rough ground. For normal hiway driving, the articulation
feature is not needed, so a heavier duty commercial hitch would work,
provided that the local structure of the frame will support it. Has
anyone done or seen such a mod? Thanks. Jim
