You can put approx 2000 lbs over to slightly forward if rear axles.
Typical truck as you have will be 5000-5500 lbs empty. 2000-2400 on the rear 2800-3200 on the front empty. Both axles are rated at 3900 or so.
Their is an engineer or two that feel one needs to get you down to the lb as to what you can carry tow etc. from 40 yrs of running operating commercially class 1-6 trucks. I'm close.
