My 2011 2500HD has the exact same axle and wheel bearings as the 3500HD trucks. Only difference is that my axle is rated at 6700 lbs. which is 200 lbs. greater than that of the 3500HD SRW. The rear axle weight of my truck is less than 3200 lbs. leaving a payload of 3500 lbs. in its stock configuration. I added SuperSprings to boost this to 5,000 lbs.
You can't "boost" your payload by adding do-dads.
I'd like to see your GAWR sticker that says 6700#. I think you need your eyes checked.
I'd bet it's 6200# just like this 4wd 2011 2500HD.
The 2011 3500 SRWs are 7050#.
Proof (note front GAWR as this is from a 2wd):
You need to get your facts right. BS helps no one.
