1 ton hauling setup
Hey guys, new here to the forum.
I'm looking for a shop that can set me up with 5th wheel hitch, aux transfer tank, spray in bed liner. Preferably all at the same place, and anywheres between Maine and Indiana. Cheap enough to not worry about the price but good enough quality to last at long distance hauling?
I'm in a 04 ram 3500 dually long box.
Also anyone who has experience hauling commercially and would like to share their wisdom and maybe truck set-ups would be great!
Thanks!

I have no experience with autos. My understanding is you have to get the built if you want them to last if towing heavy. They won't get the same mileage as 6sp. Most guys who hotshot etc fuel economy is a big deal. Injectors, cam, free spin hubs, all increase mileage. The payback will vary. Some others don't be mindful of where you spend your $.

I don't have an answer to the one shop does all stuff.
So is this a 4x4 or 2wd? If 2wd, the free spin hubs don't matter.
At the age of the truck, it just may pay to have the auto done up front and then it'll be bulletproof. Look up the Goerend heavy duty setup. His triple disc billet torque converter is made for towing (low stall) and is the industry standard.
Otherwise, gauges and a smarty jr is about all you need. I believe closer to stock for hotshotting the better.
