DO NOT exceed that weight (26000). Getting caught over weight and they can wright a book of tickets. You know better than anyone your trucks ability to pull it. Just do it by the book. I have a 2002 super duty w/7.3 and 6spd I pull a 32ft. 20K rated gooseneck with. SELDOM leave home @ less than 20-25000 gross. NEVER have had any concerns about pulling it OR stopping it. My trailer has HD brakes and will lock the wheels if the controller is to high. Best of luck!!!!!!!!
