Doubt if your chassis, including brakes, could handle 8k. Ford chassis typically handles 5500 as long as the Gross Combined weight is not exceeded. If frame has been extended, like on my 2002 Challenger 335, Damon is adamant that the tow weight is 3500 in spite of having a 5k hitch (due to welds in frame). My recommendation is do not even think about 8k
