Suggestions for towing 18k trailer

I have an '06 F250 with the 6.0 diesel and stock 12k receiver hitch. I'm looking at buying an 18k equipment trailer with a lunette ring. I've been able to find plenty of bolt on 18k+ pintle hitches, but I can't find any 2"x2" pintle mounts that are rated about 10k (or 2.5"x2.5" either). Any suggestions on where to find a pintle mount that is rated for 18k or more? Any suggestions on a new receiver hitch for my truck that can handle 18k? (I assume it will have to be a 2.5"x2.5" receiver hitch). Will my truck have any issues towing around 18k? The MCGWR is 23,400 (I think) and the truck weight around 6,300. Thanks.
