The fifth wheel or gooseneck towing capacity of a 2019 Ford F-350 Dually will range from 12,100 lbs to 34,000 lbs depending on options such as engine size, axle ratio, cab style etc. Therefore, you will need to verify your exact towing capacity and make sure it exceeds the fully loaded weight of the trailer you wish to tow in order to determine compatibility.

In order to tow a fifth wheel trailer you will need a hitch, the Reese M5 5th Wheel Trailer Hitch part # RP30922 is a great option for this and has the highest available towing capacity of 27,000 lbs. I also recommend the Air Lift LoadLifter 5000 Air Helper Springs part # AL57399 with the Air Lift WirelessAIR Compressor System part # AL74000 to help the tow vehicle handle the weight of the trailer.
