Is a 1/2 ton chevy enough truck to pull an LS R4041 with FEL, rotary cutter and box blade?

You may need to put on a load equalizer hitch to handle a little more tongue weight. I think you are going to have to put the boxblade on the very front of the trailer, then put the bush hog on the tractor and back it on to the 20 foot trailer. You may have to let the FEL stick over the back a bit but you should be able to balance it that way. The other way might be to put the boxblade in your FEL bucket and chain it up, then back the tractor up with the bushhog on it till you start to squat the truck springs. That is how I watch my tongue load. I don't want it to be coon hunting with the lights pointed at the sky but you need enough load to prevent swaying.Thanks,
That is what I was talking about although I didn't do a very good job explaining it. I am more concerned with the tongue weight and the affect on the suspension. I have a 2011 2 wheel drive Silverado Crew cab with the 5.7l engine
