Personally I would be making sure the 35' 5er loaded weights are within the 2500's capability.
A plan view of what you are talking about would help give you the answer you are looking for.

Remember that all of the sites having a calculation method for large trailer rigs are based on commercial tractors and commercial 5th wheel trailers. These 5ers have the trailer axles at the very rear of the trailer and will behave differently than a typical RV 5er with the axles closer to 60% of the trailer length.

Those turning templates are for going forward. Totally different than backing in. Now if you can find what they use to design a loading dock in the city, that would be the right stuff.

Although it isn't as easy as it sounds if you can pull in you should be able to back out. I'm not real good at the concept though. ๐ฎ

Hello. I am designing a new driveway to accommodate a GMC Sierra 2500 Crew Cab and a not-yet purchased 35' 5th wheel. What is the best way to approximately calculate the necessary turning radius for this combo?
I've scoured the internet and spoken to several RV dealers and no one can offer any help. Anyone hear have any advice? Thank you!
I guess someone should have asked this by now. Are you looking at a pull through driveway or a back in driveway? As that would be two totally different designs.
