ok did find out that 2007 ram 2500 slt has a 11.50 AAM axle rated @ 10,120# theywent to that in 2005 from a dana 80 if that would help.
thanks mike
you should be good to go, no issues whatsoever...The axle on your 07 3/4 ton pickup is rated to carry more than the axle on my 2013 dually by a susbstantial amount...Wonder why they deemed it a mere 3/4 ton pick-up? Appears you should be able to tow just about any 5er you care to tow. With a RAWR of 10,120#, your more than equipped to tow a heavier 5er with your 07" 2500 then I am with my 3500 1 ton Dually....problem solved, purchase whatever 5th wheel you like, you should have zero issues as stated by most everyone in here. Happy Camping and Merry Christmas to you....Wonder why they only badged that 2500 as a 2500? Could have easily been badged as a 3500 dually, less the extra wheels....hold on to that tuck, it's a "one of a kind":)
The axel housing etc itself is rated to 10120. The springs, tires rims etc probably have lower ratings. Tires probably in the 6000-6800 range. springs a bit more.

OP has 245/75 17" tires......3195# MAX Load at MAX PSI 80#/per tire
A GVWR of 9000# with a RAWR of 6000#
Can't tow a 11K dry weight TH and stay within ratings....period
BUT ratings are just numbers......forget about them and tow what ever your little heart desires.
Merry Christmas
