Your specs are not all that different from ours. We traded 'up' for a 3500 diesel SRW, and I do mean 'up' from the 2500 gasser that we had in the past.

But I would definitely go with one that has locking jaws over a slider bar. With jaws, you have a lot firmer hold on the king pin with a lot less chucking.
