I mentioned this in another pintle hitch thread. If you look at trucks around town pulling a large pintle hook trailer they are all larger class trucks, dump, or utility trucks, with the pintle hitch just aft of the rear axle. Very little distance from the axle to the hitch meaning that under braking the load shift of the trailer will not be trying to lift the front end of the tow vehicle off the ground. Your truck will have a huge overhang by comparison and none of the truck weight to offset it. If you are going to pull this much weight you need a weight distribution set up to combat this issue, not a pintle hook.
