With the truck weight subtracted from the 9,000 GVWR, you will have just short of 2,000 lbs to add. The hitch will be about 200 lbs. You will go over the GVWR of the truck. You will be close on the RAWR, but won't know for sure without weighing.
If you take 20% of the FW GVWR, it will give you an idea on pin wt. If you add 200 lbs for the hitch, you will be close to 3,000 lbs added to the rear axle wt.
Your truck will likely work for this trailer, but getting a smaller/lighter trailer, should be considered.
