In most cases the 150 series trucks are not suitable for any large heavy built 5th wheel. In some cases the tires on the 150 truck are passenger rated tires and have a low capacity rating. If you look on the door tag, you will find the GVWR or max the truck can weigh, then go to the scales and see what the truck weighs with full fuel, passengers and a hitch that probably weighs 150lbs. Subtract that sum from the GVWR and you now know the max you can put into the truck as a pin weight. Most 5th wheel trailers have a pin weight close to 20% of the gross trailer weight. Some are higher, some less, but if you use the 20% figure you should be able to see what size trailer fits into that category.
