2003 lance 1171 and 2017 Srw f350 am I asking for trouble?

I’m looking for real world experience. I just bought a 2017 srw 6.7 F350 diesel. A local guy has a 2003 lance 1171 with one slide I would like to buy. It’s 3700 lb dry weight. If it’s not glaring...

Actually in the case with the stock tires the real world capacity is the tire rating x2 minus weight of the unladen trucks cat scale rear axle number which is going to be less than the axle rating minus the truck weight. Don't overload the tires and wheels.

The tires on my 9900 lb axle are good for 11,840lb and I've never heard about Ford putting undersized tires on their axles.
