- ACZLExplorer3400# is 1 ton at min. What is the 5ers max wt? IMO that will determine if it will be DRW territory.

IIRC the newer Ram 25 series have a 6,500 RAWR, so if the truck had a ready to camp 3,200 on rear axle, you could add 3,300 more.
If the FW 3,400 pin wt is dry wt, it probably will be too much pin when loaded. You would have to weigh truck, getting separate axle wts, to know for sure, amount on rear axle.

2018 RAM 2500 w/Cummins 4x2 have 6500# RAWR
2018 RAM 2500 w/Cummins 4x4 have 6000# RAWR
RAWR minus 'SCALED' weight = WET Pin weight available
Course the truck GVWR (10,000#) WILL be exceeded if Rear Axle is loaded to RAWR
3400# WET Pin will exceed Trucks GVWR but RAWR should be good to go IF 4x2 with 6500# RAWR
*****(if 4x4 with 6000# RAWR..........too much pin weight by 500# or more)
