Am I reading this right? (Receiver capacity)

That is correct. :)

add that it also depends on the actual tongue weight after fully loading up
and the WD Bar ratings (how much it removes from the TV rear axle...AKA distributes
away from)

Plus...the other components of towing...like the TV RGAWR vs actual
weight when done WD'ing

That rating is rated for the hitch receiver ONLY, not necessarily for your truck.

But yes, if you use a WDH with it, the receiver can handleup to1500lbs.

You need to check the truck's spec as far as how much hitch weight it can handle.

Correct, V5 rated hitch with wdh.

now go check the label on the driver door jam... for load capacity ..

tongue weight + cargo weight = total weight...
cargo weight is people/fuel/Stuff....

Yes, you are corrrect BUT that dry weight of 910lbs will most likely be north of 1300lbs when you are ready to go camping.

I would recommend less than 1,400 pounds, as the receiver and WD bars, ect will weigh in around 100 pounds.

You are probably going to be really close to 1400 pounds by the time you add water and camping gear, clothes, ect. Try not to put to much weight forward. .

Of course check it at a CAT scale, or like I did at a moving van company. With a 3/4 ton truck, you should have much more than 1,500 pounds of cargo rating.

Good luck,

Fred.

Well, I'm hoping that fully loaded with gear and propane and what-not that I wouldn't be adding that much tongue weight.. Is it possible that I might need to replace the receiver?

Here's what it says on the door jamb label:

GVWR 9200 lbs
GAWR FRT 4670 lbs
GAWR RR 6084 lbs

I'm confused about this since the Frt and RR numbers don't add up to the GVWR.


The TT:

Unloaded Vehicle Weight (lbs) 7600
Dry Hitch Weight (lbs) 910
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (lbs) 9975
Cargo Carrying Capacity (lbs) 2375



I don't tow with water or anything in the tanks - at least, not much more than a token amount.

AS others have mentioned your loaded TW will be in the 1200-1400# range

Your axles are rated differently to allow you to put different weights in your vehicle. For example, a load of gravel over the rear axle will put all the weight there, maybe even unload the front. But then some people pull trailers, and put sizable boats up over the cab.... and that would load the front axle.

Rear axle weights are usually twice the tire capacity and are printed on the label when the truck went off the assembly line. Different tires and wheels would have a different rear axle rating.
