Thanks for all your feedback. The max payload is 1275#. A load distributing hitch won't change that number, right? What about air bags? And what about tires? The tires on it say they are rated to 2600#. No tow package. Tires are P.
2600lb tires are not the problem. that is really pretty good. After all that is 10,400lbs. your truck will NEVER weigh that much.
Now the tow package, or actually, lack of tow package is the problem, but can be added.
As for the 1275 payload. You can live with that as well. You just won't be able to carry much in the truck. After the TT is hooked you will have around 500lb left for you and DW. So easily doable. But you gonna need the tow package / trans cooler, power steering cooler, and brake controller. All easily added.
