Looking at a fifth wheel and the dry weight is just over 8K and the pin weight is 1530 lbs. Cna my 05 f250 with the camper pkg handle this pin weight? I asked this in the towing section so sorry for the double post but I am going to look at the camper in about a hour so need info asap. Thanks.

Yes, it will handle it with ease. That is the whole idea behind a 5th wheel hitch.

should be fine. But if it squats more than your liking, install some Airbags...

My 5er king pin comes in at 1100lbs, makes the truck sit level.

If your running just a 2" front level kit, then the truck will look like the rear is squating.
