Keep an eye on your overall length. This is where a lot of long wb trucks get into trouble.

They put a overall length for the trailer, you can run a 390 inch wheel base with a 53 ft trailer. I drove for a company in Columbus, In and he has several trucks with well over 300 inch wheelbases. Some of you old timers will remember his company "Days Express"
