Need more information about your truck. What year is it and so on. Older vehicles are not rated to pull or haul loads like the newer vehicles can. I Had a 1999 Dodge 3/4 ton diesel 2 wheel drive and after months of studying found out that it could only pull maximum load of 9,400 lbs. SAFELY. I am talking about SAFELY!!
I now have a 2017 Ford 350 Dually to pull my 2010 Mobile Suit 34 footer at around 11,400 to 12,000 DRY Weight SAFELY.
PS: I absolutely love the new features on the newer trucks like: transmission braking, down hill assisting or breaking and or down hill speed control. Now I don't have to worry so much about going down a 8 percent grade hills with the breaks smoke up or failing. Break saver and more importantly LIFE SAFER.
