Towing a goosneck trailer with my excursion.
I am out here in Calif. and have found a deal on a 25' long gooseneck deckover trailer, But I am out here in SoCal. at our other house on Vacation. I have also purchased 2 sea-doo's on a double Zieman trailer.
I am very familiar vith towing goosenecks trailer, but my F350 is at home in Tn. So I am wondering if this is a doable tow?
Also, let me tell you that the Excursion has a 3.5" Donahue lift sitting on 35" tires, so the reciver is higher then a stock 4wd Excursion. and also has the ride rite airbag system with the onboard compressor. Could I use a class 5, 6" drop hitch reversed with a 2-5/16 ball and tow this home with the skies on the deck of the trailer? I know I would need to watch the corners in a sharpe turn, but the trailer has an 8' V frame rails back to the bulkhead where the deck connects.
Again, this trailer is 25' long and has tandem 7K axles for a total of 14,000 lbs GWR. I also have my sherline trailer tounge weight scale with me if anyone needs to know the tounge weight of the trailer.
this is just to good of a deal to pass up and would like to get it home this trip instead of having to leave it here at the house in Ca. and schedule another trip out this summer.
thanks again.
