This is a good example, for the truck OP is asking about.
Nope...no tire loading placard (payload sticker) on this older truck. Don't need one anyway! This HD truck is designed to carry the full RAWR, when towing a FW.
Good to weigh the truck, most important, a separate rear axle weight. A lot depends on condition of a 20 YO truck, as to putting money into improving capability. Jim's recommendation, that I quoted, is a safe size load for that truck, as is, which is the manufacturer's axle rating.
