Have one, with 4.10 gears. Traded a 2009 Dodge 3500 dually with diesel and 3.73 gears in on it. Tow a HitchHiker LS with a scale-checked trip weight of 13,200 pounds.

I don't see any 6.4's come in at work with issues (I'm a Mopar tech). The biggest issue is the exhaust manifold bolts. And those are far easier to remove than the Ford 5.4/6.8 Tritons.
I think you'll be happy with it.
