I suspect that the 9,400 is for a travel trailer. The fifth-wheel weight is a bit more. We have a 2500HD with a 3.73 rear end and it has no trouble towing a Jayco Eagle Super Lite HT 26.5 RLS with a total weight capability of 9.950. If fact, the truck only settles one inch when the fifth-wheel is hitched up.I do, however, have the D/A combo with a crew-cab which might make a difference.
Nope. The 9400 is for both. If the OP has a crew cab 4x4, it's 9400lbs. Goes up to 13,000 if you have 4:10 gears.
