Ah, in that case (if you have 3/4 ton truck) you don't need it really imho. Not worth the trouble (unless you want to kinda downsize from 3/4 tonn truck and do the job with x5 - which can tow large 5500-6000lbs 23' trailers without issue).
x5 frame itself is limited by 7500lbs if I'm not mistaken, but hitch itself will be limiting factor as class 3 hitch goes to about 6000lbs, again I'm not sure as it was a while since I was doing it.
Otherwise x5 35d has a lot of torque and has no issues towing heavy loads.
