We have a longbox, 3500 2004.5, the only difference in suspension compared to your truck is a set of over load springs, have these
installed on your truck and it will be a 3500...
We haul the camper in the signature, 8 foot, the total gross
weight easily can go above 11,000 pounds.
SRW ratings from RAM those years for a one ton where 9900.
You will save weight with your 2WD, somewhere around 300-400 pounds ?..
Like some of the others have said, no problem to haul an 8 foot camper,
its all tires and wheel rating for safety...
If it is set up properly the truck(engine) will pull the weight like it is empty.
Swaybay for handling, some Torklifts for the sagging...
