It's pretty much a given that you will have to upgrade the receiver on the truck, if it is the factory receiver. Extensions will severely de-rate the capacity of the factory receiver.
Factory receiver likely has 500 or 750lb weight-carrying capacity, and 36" will cut that by 2/3. Personally I just wouldn't feel comfortable.
