The Best 5th Wheel Hitch for Heavy-Duty Towing
If you've been eyeballing those big tow numbers on modern pickups, there's something you should know: Most of them are not rated using a traditional under-bumper hitch. Instead, they're rated using a 5th-wheel hitch. The tractor-trailer style kingpin and horseshoe hitch head take weight from the trailer, and put it over the middle of your tow vehicle, right over the rear axle. This eliminates one of the major causes of trailer sway and jackknifing: Too much weight on a trailer hitch.

They add brains to your trailer brakes, rather than the simple on-off you might have with basic trailer wiring.
