You guys that have a pre '13 model 3500 SRW Dodge truck seems to forget Dodge only rates your SRW at 6200-6500 RAWR with a paltry 10100 GVWR vs fairhaven's F350 SRW with a 11500 GVWR and 7000 RAWR. Apples vs oranges in load carrying capacities.
The comment that the SRW rear axle will some how break or other scare comments is hilarious as usual.
The wheel or tires will go long before you break a rear axle on the Ford or Dodge or GM one ton SRW trucks when severally overloaded. So far no one has reported being over weight.
I did a little math with fairhaven's and jimnlin's numbers
7000-218=6782 Rear weight plus around 4500 on front axle is 11282 and he is under GVWR of 11500. Chris
