My guess is the Arctic Fox 990 will weigh about 250-500 lbs more than my 811, the crew cab long bed will add 250-500 lbs to the truck and an additional person in the truck will add even more.
You need to start by getting actual weights of your rear axle with just your occupants. This will tell you how much weight you can add before having to upgrade rims and tires. The rear axle has a 9750 lb OEM rating, so your concern will be wheels and suspension if you want something heavier. The front axle will not change enough that you need to worry about the 7250 lb Dana 60 capacity or current wheels.
