What does your combo weigh?
When I towed with my 98 12V Cummins 2500 4X4 my combined weight was 20,500# the RV was a 2002 32.5' Avion Platinum. The truck sat level without air bags. I ran stock 3rd gen tires and wheels. Can't find my weight slips but it handled the load very well but I always said that was the limit for me. Anything longer or heavier was going to be a dually.
Sent you a PM. My 2001.5 was built like a SRW 1T, but Dodge did not tag it as such. Only in 2003 did they start officially building SRW 1T's, and they had tires of a lesser capacity than my 2001.5 optional 265's.

They just don't make them like those 2nd Gen Ram/Cummins any more! The same here 01 Ram 2500 towing 05 Copper Canyon 293 FWSLS run about 2,100 pin loded and 19,000 GCVW. NO bags or Timberns, sits level, run hills all the time pull great, STOPs great goes great! The Camper Package makes all the difference, 3500 running gear and springs!
Looks just like my 98 only mine is red. Also have the same 3rd gen tires and wheels. Powered towing mirror to boot!
